Nice article, though a little old. I really like the part about marijuana being a precurser to homosexuality.
Quote "Regular cannabis use had a small association with premature mortality (RR 1·33), which was wholly explained by increased deaths from AIDS in men, probably because marijuana use was a marker for male homosexual behaviour."
Ill try and be more careful.
Lets see these articles claim 50%. I guess you can find what you want depending on the publisher.

Here is an interesting article on THC content.
http://www.briancbennett.com/charts/fed-data/thc-content.htm
your article was dated 1988
1988 Average THC 3.18
2004 Average THC 5.81
Its almost doubled since the article. I am sure the tests were done prior to the writing and theis article is 2 yrs behind. 
I just try and speak from experience. Had another last night. Pulse was 144.
I guess if what you were using Marijuana which had a THC content well below the average it may not of effected you adversley. Maybe it was ditchweed Like I said earlier your claim just doesn't fit in with the norm. Ohh an by the way most of my experience comes from Berkeley and San Francisco. Its pretty prevelent out here.
Ditch weed? Have you ever been to Canada?
Nice try....
Article #1 says, and I quote "Marijuana use increases the heart rate as much as 50 percent"----As much as does not mean it increase 50% in every case...we all have the same biology, but we all react different ways to different things!
Article #2 says "During the time when the
user is high they will have an increased heart rate up to 50% above
normal."---Once again this article uses the phrase 'up to' which could mean anywhere between 1% and 50%!
Article #3 says "Marijuana use increases the heart rate as much as 50 percent, depending on the amount of THC. "----Do you see a pattern here?
Article #4 "During the time when the user is high they will have an increased heart rate up to 50% above normal."---Up to...need I say more? I also found this very interesting from this same article... "Different people will get different results, and certain types of cannabis can cause different effects."
I don't think I need to add any of my own articles at this point, yours seem to be sufficient. I'm pretty done with this anyways, my point has been proven by both of us, even though you still appear to be in denial. Have fun catchin the bad guys. Peace out.
P.S. Lazz, you're just upset because I rejected you, you stinky beaner! :p
