Should we have a marijuana forum or would that be listed under 'recreation'?

Maybe somewhere we can post music/video links, talk about marijuana, counterculture, maybe get nostalgic about the 60's (even though I was born in 1980).

1. Your question might be better asked in the "help and meta-discussion" forum.

The admins are more likely to see it there.

not a question. We should most defnitely have a marijuana forum. It belongs in every medicine cabinet in the country.

3. There is a Drug Policy group, if that works. I know it's not exactly the same thing you mentioned.

because the topic of marijuana is not just about recreation and to place all posts about the topic in recreation would misrepresent the issue.

6. Well, it would be a group rather than a forum. But also, this is probably a Meta discussion.

Not locking because I figure some leeway is required at this point in terms of what belongs where on DU3 and I'm reticent to kill-off what might be fruitful debates, but you might want to post a thread to Help & Meta-discussion with a link-back to this thread then post that cross-link here.

Also, I can't tell you that someone else might not lock this, which is why I'm suggesting the cross-posts; we have no power to move threads.

7. I guess you're right, mods feel free to delete. I'm starting to like the offbeat forum more and more
