    If you don't have anything better to do this Friday night or you get home early you might want to catch the Bay Area Premiere of Cannabis Planet TV.  Based out of L.A., the show features cultivation tips, cooking demos, and cannabis news and information.  It is entering its second season and will be expanding to other regions as well.

    The fact that there is a show dedicated to cannabis with paid advertisers indicates just how far the topic has moved away from the fringes.  Well, a midnight booking isn't necessarily center stage, but it does demonstrate it is on its way towards the cultural mainstream.

    Check it out at midnight on KOFY TV 20-Cable Channel 13.  Here's the SF Chronicle article.
