While lots of us on this board do not view VHUB as a marijuana stock, some do and others, particularly Sgreg, have promulgated the view that VHUB's stock price will be impacted by developments in the marijuana industry. And so, let me post this hyperlink to the board this morning...
http://www.baltimorejewishlife.com/news/news-detail.php?SECTION_ID=1&ARTICLE_ID=57805

The story here - and I think it's a pretty significant story - is that the "Orthodox Union," the country's most widely followed Kosher certification agency, is looking into the possibility of certifying (on a product by product, manufacturer by manufacturer, basis) marijuana products as Kosher. This is a level of "respectability" that I would view - for whatever little my opinion counts - as being a game-changer. ...not because all that many people give a hoot about any product being Kosher (orthodox Jews are perhaps 15% of the 3% Jewish population in this country), but because more health-oriented consumers are relying to some extent on Kosher supervision of products to make purchasing decisions.

My track record on this board as a non-owner (and non-shorter) of the stock is clear, I believe, of either bashing or pumping, so take this news for whatever you may think it's worth.
