I see a lot of drug screens and they do test specifically for THC.  I don't see how the level would make any difference if the test was positive for THC.

Yes they identify it, but what he was talking about was that the presence of THC alone is not what causes a failed test, rather the proportion of THC to other naturally occuring items in the body.  That is what shows the difference between someone who actively brings it into their body versus other means.  It's not like LSD, for example, that has no natural sources.  Presence of LSD alone says it all.  But with THC, there are ways it can enter the body without using cannabis.  And that was, in my understanding, what they were really looking to verify by the ratio of the testing markers.

Think Elaine Benes and her poppy seed muffins...
