Edit Reason: added licensing data

The story is almost unbelieveable. The site does not seem like 'the onion' which spoofs things, nor the recent Utube video of a ship found (floating) after being lost for 90 years (the reader comments labeled her a fruitcake aimed at making $ by people clicking to watch her videos)
Because the Gleaner was mentioned, I've been fruitlessly been looking at the site for any publication of the vending machine sales. Tying 'ganja' into the Gleaner search box is like typing 'auto accident'; many hits (no pun.)
Did find that 200 people applied for 11 types of licenses and fees range between US$2,000 and US$10,000. A non-refundable application processing fee of US$300 is charged for individuals and US$500 for a company business or cooperative.
Also found a story that several counterfit J$1K bills were discovered recently - with the same serial number; CC174514. Oh, and buy a ton of ganja and the price is US$50 per lb. (LB = pound. why that?)
So thanks for the discovery Firemon. Not going to spread the story until some other sources come on board. Interesting concept, and it makes sense, and it will be a boom to the airport currency kiosk
