Nah not yet. I mean not drifting around the internuts in free form arrr. It's in that journal linked, and scientific research journals don't publish online like blogs.
I don't see anything about mice, but that would likely be part of the process especially determining generational mutations. We're not cactus either, but biologically closer to rodents and especially monkeys etc. Oh course you know, a pot study, they had lines of people to the door to test this shite out [You must be logged in to view images.

Here is the official news release from the university two days ago Cannabis use linked to gene mutation
Then another industry news site picked it up yeaterday: Cannabis use alters DNA to increase disease risk, study says
I've since heard a news report on it on AM radio. Mainstream media luvs this stuff, likely it'll start showing up soon on cable tv etc.

I read what you had linked, and the study was only done on mice. There are a lot of holes in those studies, but the ethical limits of testing demand that lesser mammals be tested before humans. I'd like to see who funded the research grant too. The over arcing logic in the study is dubious because there are many factors that determine a mutation in dna. That it may be passed down to future generations is an aspect of evolution, so I lean towards the claim that the study is likely wrong in its conclusions due to the disproportionate factors of singling out smoking cannabis compared to a seemingly infinite amount of other variables.
