According to an article on Fox News, cannabis does not increase the risk of lung cancer in smokers. Even frequent users who have smoked tens of thousands of joints over their lifetime are at no greater risk than infrequent users or non-users.
The researchers are not sure exactly why this is, but think it may have something to do with the active ingredient in cannabis, THC.

The fact that Fox is running this story jsut makes me feel all warm and happy all over..
hehe Fox News
This is the same news network that ran a story about how you could “magically” get porn on your PSP out of “thin air.” I don’t find them very credible.
Fox News makes me laugh and makes me angry at the same time.
The BBC is also carrying the story… I just posted Fox because I thought it was ironic 🙂
