Thanks Steve. I was actually asking Gilly specifically since he didn't actually give any info to go with his opinion, so I was just curious why he felt the way he did.

As for caffeine, I would agree with you there, and it is far more addicting, though, less detrimental to get away from than most drugs. I gave up Caffeine over a year ago and after an initial week of headaches it was fine. I did it just because I could. Didn't need to but I felt like caffeine really didn't do that much for me.

As for Marijuana being a gateway drug, people have said that but I don't know that it's true. I think it is a gateway drug only in the sense that using it lowers your inhibitions to the point where you are willing to try drugs that you wouldn't otherwise. But that's my own personal opinion. I've smoked marijuana before, haven't since I got married just because I don't really see a point to it, for me. Not to say I wouldn't. But I have enough health issues that smoking it really isn't smart.
