As someone that has been using marijuana from the sixties to present time I am glad such a test is being developed. Under present law a blood test convicts me for something I did weeks ago.

Treat the drug with respect, it does slow your reflexes, and I for one would find it hard to sleep at nights wondering if that accident causing harm to others was my fault because of being just a little high.
