LOL! Protect them? Saying marijuana protects brain cells is like saying cigarettes protects against some mental illnesses. (Some studies indicate that small doses of nicotine can delay schizophrenia.) It’s a ridiculous statement. A single chemical or two, in it’s raw form, COULD be useful. But when you line that up the fact that other chemicals leave residue in the brain for about six months after you light up trumps any good it could do. After a while, this residue builds up and slows down neurons and practically stops nueroplasticity (this is the physical equivalent to learning.) That is how people become “burn outs” when they always seemed to be perpetually high. It’s because their brain is severely slowed down.
[Editor's note: "Ridiculous statement"? Only if you're ignorant of the emerging scientific reports regarding cannabis and cancer...]

Confidential to Sam.
I enjoyed your remark, it shows the clean thinking of a brain that’s been thoroughly washed.
