Zippie: I bought more shares in TRTC today because I believe in the company. Yep discouraging news but I think that the justified uses of marijuana for medical purposes will continue. As a Vietnam combat veteran with several medical problems (e.g. cancer surgery February 2013, spine surgery May 2013, second cancer surgery will be July 30, 2014 because my cancer has returned, and diabetic) caused by my exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam. In my opinion a reasonable person would want such studies to see if us Nam Vets and Vets from all wars could be helped by marijuana. I've been on strong Class 1 Narcotics every day since June 2005 and I really would like to try marijuana to see if it would help me and get off of the narcotics but I live in the Bible belt and my state really throws the book at people caught with marijuana so I will not even attempt trying it not even one time until it is legal in my state. I don't know if I have PTSD or not because I've never been tested for it although I do have regular memories about Nam almost every day and some dreams. Sincerely, Senior Chief
