@blankfist and @Fusionaut: I want to make it clear. I'm not arguing that marijuana (or tobacco) should be illegal. I was arguing two things.

1) Citing one case of a person not having any ill effects from it is not a good argument for its safety; this is similar to tobacco users' frequent and equally-fallacious references to people like George Burns as examples of tobacco's harmlessness.

2) Claims of marijuana's safety with respect to an increase in risk of some cancers are at best disputed and at worst entirely incorrect.

That's it.

I miss George Burns!

Thanks for this one, QM.

Brad Dourif was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for this role. He lost to George Burns, which, if you're going to lose, you should lose to a legend.

Dourif went on to become a successful character actor, appearing in Foreman's Ragtime, David Lynch's Dune and Blue Velvet, Mississippi Burning, the Lord of the Rings trilogy, HBO's Deadwood, and he's also the voice of Chucky, the doll from all the Child's Play films.
