		It was only on her return to Britain, when she began collecting evidence to present before the Royal Commission on the Health of the Army, that Nightingale changed her mind, reaching the painful conclusion that most of the soldiers at her hospital had been killed by bad sanitation, due to her ignorance.

		Last month, State Senator Nicholas Scutari (D-Linden) introduced the New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act, which would legalize marijuana use for the severely ill. Since then, Acting Governor Richard Codey has expressed his opposition to the bill and, as other legislators have weighed in with varied opinions, a consensus seems unlikely.
		Scutari’s bill cites a March 1999 study by the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine to substantiate the benefits of using marijuana to relieve symptoms such as chronic pain, seizures and severe nausea, which are often associated with the aforementioned illnesses.
		Scutari, a Linden Township prosecutor, no longer wants patients with debilitating medical conditions incriminated for marijuana use, according to Liz Opacity, a constituent services legislative aid for his District 22 office.
