這年頭居然有人捐款做毒品研究？
Christmas came early this year for smokers in Australia.

Or are they a little late for 4/20?
或者說推遲了大麻節？
Well, it's Winter on their side of the world anyways so it's a present.
不管怎么說，對于地球另一邊的生活在嚴冬的人們來說，這是個暖心的禮物。
But Australian couple Barry and Joy Lambert has made a whopping A$33.7 million donation to an Australian university for research into medical cannabis.
但是澳大利亞的蘭伯特（Lambert）夫婦向悉尼大學捐贈了一筆3370萬澳元的巨款，用于醫用大麻的研究。
The generous gift is the largest donation ever received by Sydney University, and the couple hopes it puts Australia at the forefront of medical cannabis research.
這筆善款是悉尼大學迄今為止收到的最大一筆私人捐款，這對夫婦希望可以借此為澳大利亞醫學大麻前沿性研究出一份力。

Barry太太稱，“我們希望澳大利亞成為能夠最大限度發揮藥用大麻作用的全球領軍者，”
