Ugly incident
Apr. 17th, 2005 05:13 pmIn case you don't know, in Oregon, a doctor can write you a prescription allowing you to use marijuana for a medical condition.
You then file some paperwork and you can grow it yourself, or have a designated someone grow it for you.
On the news tonight the top story is about someone who was growing marijuana for a friend. Legally. So men broke into his house and attacked him to get the marijuana plants.
Only way he can see that they found out that he had them was that somehow the info in the state records "leaked". The state says they are kept confidential.
I figure that there are only two ways the info could have gotten out:
1. his friend or his family talked somewhere they shouldn't have.
2. Someone involved with the state agency that handles the paperwork leaked the info.
And I'm rather more inclined to think the latter, given that the odds favor there being *someone* involved who either doesn't approve of the program or who saw a chance for some easy money.
Either way, this is going to cause problems with the program.
Wish we could just get it over with and make the stuff as legal as alcohol.

In case you weren't aware, they automatically archive content, and do *not* track changes. So, for example, if I friends lock an entry after posting , it won't necessarily be friendslocked there.
Also, they hot-link to any links in your LJ.
See this for more info about Bloglines and possible shortcomings of being linked there.
I've emailed them asking to be removed *and* asking them to not hot-link to content at *any* website in my domain.
