I think that cannabis consumers coming out of the closet would help its image with a lot of the non-consumers who only picture Cheech and Chong when they think of weed. I can't say I have too much of a problem with it being called a drug though, as long as the word "drug" isn't used as a pejorative for the substance and only describes something that alters processes in your body or mind. Anyway, good post and I largely agree. Up-voted and followed.
