LSD is measured in micrograms, and around 50 for a typical dose. So you have 20 per mg, 20,000 per gram and 20,000,000 per kg. As a kg is 2.2 lbs. It comes out to around 55 million hits.
Gannon should have slipped Friday a tab in his morning java.
Would have made for an interesting day.
According to redditor Darkdog6991, LSD dosage ranges from 20 micrograms to 1500 micrograms. It is estimated that Albert Hoffman, who discovered LSD, ingested 250 micrograms of the stuff on Bicycle Day (April 19, 1943).
6.37 lbs ia 2.8894 billion micrograms, or 11,557,600 Bicycle Day trips. That's about enough to get the State of Ohio high (don't know about the governor, though).
The town is right outside of Ft Campbell, Ky.
Who even does that stuff anymore?
A microgram is one millionth of a gram. There are 453.6 million micrograms in a pound.
A very recent news story said that yuppie-preppies millennials in NYC are doing microdoses of acid to gain a sharper edge you might say.

If true, that’s over 22,000,000 100mcg doses.
Six pounds? LSD is does in micrograms. Therefore six pounds of LSD is about 2,718,000,000 micrograms. Each dosage (low is about 50mcg’s therefore 5,436,000 hits...hmmm
6lb in micrograms is 2.722e+9. 2.722e+9 / 50 is 54,440,000 50mcg hits.
Was it ‘Purple Ozley’? If so the cops will have out on campus in no time.
“Timothy Leary’s dead
Oh no he’s outside
Looking in.”
Way too many Freepers on this thread know way too much about the distribution size of acid.
Just sayings is all.
I’m pretty sure they count the paper it’s soaked onto as part of the weight, still, it’s a boatload.
That’s a lot of Woodstocks.
Damn Hippies.
Imagine if this was added to a big metropolis’s water supply.
That’s enough LSD(if it’s created correctly) for every single human on Earth.
If it’s 6 pounds of pure LSD it would be enough to get everyone in the world high for like 10 years.
Also this if this guy does not have a MS or PhD in Chemistry it is very likely he is a middleman. It requires extensive knowledge and a very expensive laboratory to produce LSD. I have heard at any given time there is less than 1 dozen people producing LSD in the US.
