This piece (above), links to the original report from NBC Miami, which is a funny, nicely written bit about Irvin Rosenfeld — one of four tokers who get their supply from the US government, which enjoys the monopoly on legal marijuana.

The MyFox National piece also notes, in the trail-off at the end, that the American Medical Association is about to endorse marijuana as medicine.

Again, my prediction: marijuana will be legal (not only for medical use) by the end of 2012. Estimated price within a year of legalization: $15 per ounce.

NBCMiami.com. reported that Rosenfeld is writing a book on his experiences as the nation’s longest-running legal pot-smoker, tentatively called “Potluck.” He hopes to have it published in the spring. But he expects Friday, Nov. 20, he will set a world record for marijuana consumption when when he lights up No. 115,000.
