Industrial Marijuana Farming Approved In Oakland
Trintech writes "According to MSNBC: 'The city of Oakland, California on Tuesday legalized large-scale marijuana cultivation for medical use and will issue up to four permits for "industrial" cultivation starting next year.
The move by the San Francisco Bay Area city aims to bring medical marijuana cultivation into the open and allow the city to profit by taxing those who grow it.
The resolution passed the city council easily after a nearly four-hour debate that pitted small-scale "garden" growers against advocates of a bigger, industrial system that would become a "Silicon Valley" of pot.' Yes, you read that right. MSNBC just compared computer chip fabrication to pot cultivation."
With all the violence and protests in Oakland, a lot of pot is needed to help everyone just mellow out, man.
Now who's coming to the Phish concert with me?
There's no -1 for "I don't get it."
I once smoked an Intel chip, all it did was make me cry. ;)

If you add prostitution to the mix, that's the best Bureau *ever*!
In fact, forget the Bureau!
