> Back in the 70's, there was a person doing life in a ?Texas?
prison for possession of ... one marijuana seed.

I do remeber there was a time that the penalty for possession in Texas was life, and possession would be any quantity, so I suppose it's possible. I've often wondered if if there are any of those lifers still doing time there. Anybody know?
