I think they all know there are negative effects of smoking weed.

How do you know it hasn't hurt their performance? Have they gone a year+ without smoking, performing the exact same training under the exact same circumstances?

I don't know. I'm just going off what they say or what they believe. They know their body better than anyone and if they are running the same times or better, hitting the ball further, skating just as good, etc.

Strictly controlled research has a hard enough time factoring out error. You can't even begin to guess about the effects of something just based on someone being an athlete, or what have you.

I'm not guessing, I'm going off of what they believe and what they know about their bodies and their performance 5 years ago to today. Okay it isn't controlled research, but I'm also not claiming it as fact like someone saying 50 to 1 ratio, I'm just going off their words from knowing their bodies and performance their whole lives. My point is no one can prove for certain one way or another, I'm just asking for proof rather than opinion.
edit: Also this Iolite thing is just pure awesome! I've showed three friends so far and two of them have already ordered one.
