Grandma Likes Her Bach (with a little buzz)

Interesting article from the Washington Post about the growing acceptance of weed among middle-aged Americans -- and what that means for legalization in the U.S.

My favorite part's near the end, though:

"One older smoker who doesn't mind outing herself is Florence Siegel, an 88-year-old artist from New York who has been smoking regularly since her early 50s. That's when the family's pediatrician suggested they try marijuana together to see "what the kids were so excited about." The pediatrician didn't feel a thing. Siegel said she never stopped.

Now her routine is to sit in her favorite chair each evening, listen to Bach and take a few hits from one of her many pipes."
