Great summation of the facts out there. I learned a few things and agree with the rest 100%.
Unfortunately, what I find when talking to folks who are not already on board, is that they automatically think that "Oh you can use Hemp to make houses" means, "I want to smoke weed and this is an excuse to grow pot!"
Doesn't matter if I tell them I haven't smoked in 35 years (true story), they still think the natural use of the plant is really all about getting stoned. That's hard to get around.
When the house passed the bill in Washington 97-0 in favor, a big reason it passed unanimously was because they were educated before voting on the bill.
