[Vision2020] North Carolina takes it all!

[Carl Westberg]

Joan writes regarding the curriculum at the University of North Carolina, 
they offer a class on "how to roll a nice, tight joint."  A class like that 
at the U of Idaho would have saved me a lot of heartache if they'd offered 
it around 1970....
