Dr. Russo is an author on natural medicines and is a consultant to GW Pharmaceuticals in the UK that will soon be introducing legal cannabis extracts for medical prescription. He regularly comments at cannabisnews.com and will speaking at a Marc Emery convention in Vancouver at the end of the month on the proper classification of cannabis in the Schedule of Narcotics. The Schedule 1 classification is a complete lie and shows the contempt the DEA has for this plant that holds up the center tent in their drug war circus.
I am looking for anyone that has information on the article mentioned in Dr. Russo's comment that is copied from
http://www.cannabisnews.com/news/thread18149.shtml#30 I will put something up later when info becomes available at Cannabisnews. Hopefully someone can shed some early light on this article.
I would recommend that everyone try to pick up a copy of February issue of the magazine Fast Company, which features an article on GW Pharmaceuticals (pp. 82-87) and how the US Government has missed the opportunity to fully investigate a valuable potential medicine.
