Which Way, L.A.?
Dazed and Confused over Orange County's Pot Policies? Medical marijuana was approved by California voters in 1996, and it's a billion-dollar industry.

Since then, it's been closing them down — going to court and shutting off their water and power. The city is now saying "no," but Santa Ana, next door, held a lottery last Thursday for 20 licenses. No less than 630 applicants paid $1700 each for a chance to open a business.
