| Lexington Kentucky - The AllTranz company has received a 2million dollar grant in federal stimulus funds to help it develop a marijuana patch for those trying to quit the drug, essentially like the patch for people who want to quit smoking cigarettes. Quoting a National Institute on Drug Abuse synopsis "test on animals and humans found withdrawal symtoms that appear as severe as those associated with tobacco smoking" that include difficulty sleeping, marijuana cravings and irritability. AllTranz believes there is a need for this patch. Lexington company gets $2 million stimulus grant to develop pot-withdrawal patch | courier-journal.com | The Courier-Journal |

| If you're going to throw stimulus money towards marijuana-related things, how about giving some to NORML and MPP? Support something that's actually useful.

| Eghh its not that bad of an idea. Sometimes I wanna take smoking breaks but its hard cause i love weed so much and am used to smoking it on a daily basis. If there was something that made it easier to take a tolerance break id use it. But other than that I agree we should give money to NORMAL and the marijuana policy project so we can get legalization and regulation moving faster. |

| While we're at it, let's make a patch for coffee drinkers because they need help quitting. Let's also make a patch to help people eat healthier. Jesus christ, people need to realize that these magical patches are not the solution.. If you really want to quit marijuana you're going to quit. What a fucking waste of taxpayer (stimulus) money...

| "If you're going to throw stimulus money towards marijuana-related things, how about giving some to NORML and MPP?" I'm sorry but that doesn't even make any sense. Federal stimulus money to go towards groups that are trying to change federal laws? If the government were willing to support those groups those groups wouldn't need the money. ![]() Although I can agree that the money certainly could have been better spent elsewhere.
