That Bicycle is quite famous. The trips are pretty interesting...so I have heard.
Bummer dude!
"Tard" refers to the ping list members and not to the subject of the thread!
List of Ping Lists
LSD & Unix both from Berkeley...which one was used to make the other?
“Hofmann was disappointed when his discovery was removed from commercial distribution. He remained convinced that the drug had the potential to counter the psychological problems induced by materialism, alienation from nature through industrialisation and increasing urbanisation, lack of satisfaction in professional employment in a mechanised, lifeless working world, ennui and purposelessness in wealthy, saturated society, and lack of a religious, nurturing, and meaningful philosophical foundation of life.
Faith in God “counters” those things, Albert.
I guess we now know how long Keith Richard should be expected to live.
Remember what the dormouse said.
Owsley
Good stuff, I suppose. No speed mixed in. Wish I’d never heard of it!
It actually strengthens your faith in God...
Or so I’ve heard.

... in other words, it turns you into a brain dead liberal.
Or so Ive heard.
I've heard the same.
RIP Hoffman.
I figured out that I was God....
Got a bit old after a while and I retired in 69
I thought another American who spent the 1930’s to the mid 1940’s in the South American jungles actually found the compunds for LSD and gave them to this guy??
There was a story about it on National Geographic the other night.
Hoffman wrote to the guy in the jungle and talked about his “trip” and the guy in the jungle said that’s nothing you need to try this new stuff or something like that.
The guy in the jungle went from native village to native village without wepons of any type and never had a problem.
Or so a friend told me...
