Sorry; ... I'm gonna have to go through all that myself to make a conclusion about that.

My friends and I lived on the stuff in the early to mid-1970's.  It was the era....the University of Illinois in Champaign (150 miles south of Chicago) had so much, we smoked it outdoors in the public places of the university!

We had a public celebration called "Hash Wednesday," when the central part of the campus (the 'quad') was basically taken over by stoners.  The police just stayed away.   Look at this photo:  http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x5137391

Seems that many/most of us "pot head pixies" were into prog, big time!!  That's pretty much all we played back then.  

Haven't done it in some years, but I don't pass judgement on those who partake.  I wish they'd legalize it and tax it.

all the potheads are probably the ones who haven't replied to the poll.

I smoked it from age 13 on and off until i was 20. I found it psychologically addictive. In early February of 2013, i will have been clean of it for 30 years-best decision i ever made!

I started smoking in about 1997 on a daily basis for about 9 or 10 years and then reduced heavily when the kids showed up. Now it's every now and then maybe once a month when I come across it.
Actually I'm smoking right now.

I used to smoke very occasionally because my friends did.  But I nearly always felt ill pretty quickly and now I never touch the stuff it doesn't agree with me.  Yuk!
Help me I'm falling!

I've never smoked and I'm not interested. Why would I spend my money for burning it - nearly literaly?

I used it when I was younger in an average of twice a month, always with friends. I have almost never used it by myself. And it's been a long time since the last day I smoked.

You're probably allergic to it. I knew somebody that was allergic to weed...of course, that didn't stop them from smoking it.

But when the stuff started getting rare and worse quality (mid-80's), I reduced quite a bit...
 
Upon my return in Europe, I spent a few years without it... Then I visited Dutch coffee shops, and tried a few of the local chemically-enhanced clone squnk stuff... didn't like it... Too strong, cold sweats, uninviting smell etc...  
 
So I started growing it.... with variable results... Now, I smoke two or three joints/year 
 
I guess it's fair to say I grew out of it... never felt trapped either
