    Change.org – Legalize the Medicinal and Recreational Use of Marijuana

    Monday, January 12th, 2009 at 10:46 am | By: Radical Russ

    Change.org – Ideas for Changing America: Legalize the Medicinal and Recreational Use of Marijuana

    I looked over at the sidebar widget and saw that our Change.org Idea for Legalization dropped to 1,074 votes!  What?!?  It was at over 8,800 last I checked!

    Then I surfed over.  Don’t panic, all is well.  We’re at 10,749 votes, still the top-rated idea.  The problem is they didn’t program their Flash widget to handle five digits – too many votes.  We’ve overwhelmed them with “V10K”!

    Surf over to Change.org and let’s push it up to “V20K” by the deadline, which is this Thursday @ 5:00PM Eastern.
