US CA: ‘Interested Parties’ Await Outcome of a Marijuana Measure

New York Times, 24 Oct 2010 – Leslie Hennessy, owner of Hennessy’s Wines & Specialty Foods in San Francisco, waved his hand over a glass case that sits next to his cash register, across from the deli section where he sells cheeses, gourmet salads and olives. Inside the case were colorful boxes of Macanudo and Romeo y Julieta cigars. But Mr. Hennessy imagines that the case will soon contain another smokable product – marijuana, packaged attractively because "a rolled up joint in a baggy isn’t going to do it," he said.
