That way we can see what leg. is up and how it goes.

Since the Southern Baptists are so powerful (hdqtrs of the SBC in Nashville) first going the medical route might be best to appeal to their basic decency in regard to people like the children with Dravet's epilepsy.

But since tourism is such a big deal in Memphis, Nashville and the Smokies area - even to Johnson City's Storyteller's Guild, etc... it's sort of weird not to just legalize, since music is such an important part of the TN economy. But then again, I'm not right with gawd.
