Hi Folks,

Here is a link which has two tables from the U.S. government’s own National Institute of Health that compares the effects [addictiveness, etc.] of some commonly used recreational herbs and drugs.

*The two tables are at the bottom of the page.

*Note that both researchers rate Cannabis as the least addictive item - by far - in these tables, ranking it less addictive than even coffee.

Thanks, Pat.
