LIGHTEN UP!

Lighten up! ("Up in smoke" Jose Rodriguez, Oct. 10.) Comparing
smoking a joint to having sexual relations is perverse. One act is
intimate and personal, while another is no different than having a
beer. I enjoyed Jean Chretien's joke immensely. It's time the public
learns to laugh about this witch hunt for folks who use the safest
recreational compound known to man. Jose Rodriguez, go have a martini
if you please -- and calm down.

(Rodriguez was laughing, too.)
