Thank you for all of the interesting and thoughtful responses.
There appear to be a lot of variables involved with marijuana. Potency, and differences in strains - some of which reportedly promote relaxation, others which are more energizing.
I know people who do brilliant software engineering while under the influence of potent marijuana. Which amazes me - back in "the day", for me personally, pot and any kind of analytical work was definitely a disastrous combination.
No, I was more the type to get stoned occasionally and become kind of shy and stupid - but highly appreciative of music, art, and nature!
I may need to research the Washington State driving-under-the-influence-of-pot rules more carefully. I do remember that medical marijuana users were opposed to the initiative legalizing recreational use. Their objection was based on allegedly over-strict and non-evidence based new DUI rules. (I don't know if those rules, now in effect, are being enforced as written.)
I have encountered some reports that marijuana can have a protective effect with regard to Alzheimer's, though some would find that highly counter intuitive. But, opining re: the health impact of pot overall, is way out of my scope of expertise. Certainly taking smoke into one's lungs can't be good.
Once again, thanks to all for taking the time a reply. You give me plenty to ponder, and re-ponder...........
