@smitty- Not old enough to be in that book! But the old hippy spirit still persists, i suppose.
And, yes, that's my real name.

maxcrabb, that's your real name? Don't recall it from the book. Still growing, huh?
You beat me to it. That's one funny local anecdotal book on Lawrence's hemp growers society.

Just read "Cows are freaky when they stare at you"
Several LJWorld commentators that use their real names are in that book.
Good luck dealing with the rambling/stream of conscience style of writing. Man those hippies were all over the place, what with their free love, drugs, and devil may care attitude.... but i digress...

Names Names..I want Names! These darned old records aren't any fun if I can't see if it's a relative or one of my siblings friends.
I'm so disappointed....

WOW 40 years ago!
That means if they had been 40 year old men at the time, then there would be 80 year old pot heads in Lawrence Kansas

How quaint. Nowadays, they "manufacture" it!
