60 Minutes: December 30, 2007 Mega Fires; Pot - Pain or Profit; Get Me The Geeks Before the century is over, at least half of the forests in the western U.S. may burn to bare ground. Scott Pelley has reported on the mega-fires before and now follows up on what, if anything, is being done to address the conservation efforts that just may be fueling these fires and what can yet be expected. Morley Safer is continuing his look into Proposition 215 which legalized medical marijuana in California, hoping that pain patients would finally find relief. Unfortunately, it seems this business is little more than legal pot emporiums. Dealers with storefronts. How easy is it to get a prescription for pot ? Now that the holidays are over, raise your hand if you�ve got a new gadget you can�t exactly figure out. You�re far from the only one. Many people have handy-dandy electronics and don�t access all their capabilities because it�s just too complicated. Steve Kroft follows up on his report �Get Me The Geeks!� in lending a hand to those of us who might not even know how to turn the darn things on yet.
