In a two hour special presentation to be broadcast on Tuesday, 9/9/03 from 10:05 AM till Noon CDT, host Dean Becker and a panel of 5 experts will discuss the mechanisms of the drug war and how the laws against the use of certain drugs have been usurped and compounded in the war of terror. (Broadcast from the Pacifica studios of KPFT, Houston, 90.1 FM and online at http://www.kpft.org/ )

Guests will include:

Dr. Mitch Earleywine, a noted researcher, author and speaker about the beneficial uses of marijuana.

In that the anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy is in 2 days, we anticipate this show will contain many pertinent statements by this fine panel that could be used by other stations focusing on the 2 year war of terror. We give permission to use this file in total or in part. We only ask that you provide us with a notice of said use, noting the station and location of the broadcast.

If you have any questions in this regard, please contact Dean Becker at dean@cultural-baggage.com

Our network is growing, and we need your assistance to help end the eternal war on drugs.

Thank you,

Dean Becker
