"Seems like most people wanting legal pot just want it to get high with."  
Not me.  I'd use it to unlock the hitherto unlockable part of my 
conciousness that would allow me to reach out to my fellow men and women, 
and solve the mysteries of life, the universe and everything.  If I get high

in the process, that's the price I'd pay for my overarching altruism.  Plus,

I understand Angelina Jolie digs sensitive guys who want to make the world a

better place.
