No, the IP is invalid now as we have a different ISP at the new address so that will not work at all anyway now, lol. Just throw it away :)

I have no Idea whose hash I am smoking :P

Hi SR a genuine query for you as you know more about cannabis than me, Fact.
Does perception alter the "quality" of a smoke?

e.g. if you bought 2 x 1g of cheese from Homegrown Fantasy and called them sample A and sample B and rolled 2 joints. You then told 5 friends sample A was from Homegrown Fantasy and sample B was from say Paradise, then asked them which was best. Yes the product is the same but i would put money on more people saying that sample A was better. Of course only one example of perception and alot of people would argue that they know exactly what they are smoking.

Of course perception covers alot of grounds but do you agree or disagree with this theory?

I would think that if the joints were smoked one per hour over a two hour test period, the results for the majority would be A and/or 'they are the same'.

At the very least I think even a novice smoker would be able to detect taste which would affect their perception of the smoke.

EDIT: of course I am speaking in theory without having sampled the actual weed in question; I was applying the same basic premise to weeds available in any given environment.

Cheers

Monday morning? Is that the 22nd? If thats the case then that's travel to Dusseldorf day, so I can set off a bit later as I head off to Dusseldorf for the week for work.

@Stew1974 - You would get more A if the people were like me, and believed that to be the best. As soon as you say HGF cheese, I like it more than the others ;) If however it was done in a genuine blind test, as in the people hadn't heard of HGF or Paradise, then I have no idea how it would come out, one would expect 50/50, but how many people can fairly compare the quality of 2 spliffs one after the other? It's a question that is very hard to predict, since it's based on individual perception, and I really don't know how anyone else thinks :) Perception changes the effect of everything. Ever had an argument with someone over a situation? There you go, you are both witness to the same event, but you both perceive it differently, your perception shapes everything in your own life, including smoking :)

Twich, is it me or do you keep changing your signature to lyrics from various Pink Floyd songs? I'm sure it is a different song every few days or so :?

One of my favorites too, although not my ultimate favorite it does rank in my top 5 Floyd Albums :)

I am looking forward to picking up my records from England soon and my 13 Original Vinyl Floyd Albums, how I miss them so :)
