In a Botany class years ago, a weed was defined as a "plant out of place".

Thanks. We visited both a few years ago and I couldn't remember (and was too lazy to look it up).

We saw one last week that had 150 potential buyers show up. Police were called, as the street became impassable.

Wodstock is very nice. A little farther, Albany was nice years ago, though I haven't seen it in a long while. The Finger Lakes are lovely. At the high end of your driving you could get to Toronto or Montreal (I forget which one of those was about 5 hours by car).

There is an important distinction between "theory" and "wild ass speculation".

Given the vastness of space, probably so. Given the speed of light, we'll probably never know.

Of course they can be. Just like all of the state programs are illegal at the federal level. "Not currently enforced" is not the same as legal.

In NJ the reason is that they started, like other states, building upon the existing med program. Which in NJ's case was almost nonexistent.

Supply regarding dispensaries, not their inventory. We have 20ish dispensaries for 9 million people. When I visited Jasper in Alberta last fall they had 4 dispensaries for 5000 people. Prices were pretty cheap.
And if people weren't buying the prices would be lower. So clearly wrong about demand.
Enjoy the city. When I walked from Penn Station to 51st a few months ago I saw 2 dispensaries, 4 "smoke shops" that also sold weed, and a guy in Times Square who set up a table on the sidewalk full of weed. All were illegal.

Not sure how legal? How about "not at all"?

Many people don't really have that option.
snarkuzoid t1_j57un7h wrote
I wish people would just give this a rest. There are two reasons:
- Supply
- Demand
The tiny number of dispensaries currently have a virtual monopoly, and they're pressing that advantage to make as much money as they can. This is just good business. As more dispensaries open, which is happening more slowly than anyone else wants, prices will come down.
Give it time.

Reply to comment by FordMan100 in How successful would a drive-in theater be in NJ? by DifferenceIll8124
So the key to keeping them going is to steal admission revenue from them?
snarkuzoid t1_j1r5l57 wrote
The experience. Theaters are struggling to attract viewers despite making the theaters plush, the seats comfortable, etc. Hard to compete with sitting on the couch in your PJs and loved ones watching a movie stream. Sitting in my with a crappy speaker watching a bunch of other cars watching the movie? No thanks. It was fun 50 years ago, but not since.

As others have pointed out, Madison is a great town, and it's 5 minutes from Morristown, which is a happening place, with lots of bars, restaurants, and MPAC (Mayo Performing Arts Center).
