And I like Anthony realistic post regarding this legislative session. What the Eugene Weekly article didn't say is that Allan Erickson & I had distributed two 20-30 page information packets to our mayor and city council before Mayor Piercy proclaimed May 5, 2007 as "MMJ Awareness Day. This years proclamation of a week ran concurrently with the EW distribution dates. BTW, my last name is spelled Greig, not Grieg. Jim Greig ********* Thanks Russ, good article.

Great work this legislative session by the Oregon cannabis activist community. Our community had to face off against Big Business, the Law Enforcement Lobby and politicians who told us that bills harmful to patients were going to pass this session and there was really nothing we could do about it. But activist after activist and organization after organization kept speaking truth to power and we won some important battles this session. It was truly a legislative session that Oregon activists can be proud of. Thanks for posting this, Russ. Great work this legislative session by the Oregon cannabis activist community.
