Channel 59 up here.

In a series investigating the history of drug use, we begin our trip tracing the rise of marijuana and synthetic amphetamines. Marijuana, from the Indian hemp plant, has been used worldwide as a source of rope, cloth, and paper; its medicinal qualities were first documented 4,000 years ago in China. But it\'s best known as the drug of choice of the 1960s. During WWII, US troops were given an estimated 200 million amphetamines to fight drowsiness and battle fatigue, and they\'re still used to fight depression.

Oh my god when are they going to put something new on the History Channel? I swear I have seen every one of their programs. They seem to air something, then a few months later stick a new title on it and add few new interviews. :lol:

If you haven\'t see this before however I bet it would be a interesting watch.

Yeah it\'s like trying to watch Casablanca if you\'re a cigarette smoker... you want to light one up every other minute.
