Most people are either mdma or mdma/mda, some people try to pass DXM for ecstasy. I have *never* heard of anyone putting LSD in e like pills.
There's tons of crap out there that is passed off as ecstasy. Something called PMA and also Special K. Ecstasy can go for as much as $30 a pill, I've heard of up to $50. These others are closer to $5 a pill, so people try to pass it off as ecstasy.
Typicallly ecstasy deaths are caused by these these substances. Raves sometimes have pill testing, so that people know what they are takeing.
I used to do acid in the late 80s, before the ecstasy thing started. I could tell the difference in certain types. Some had more stricnine than others, etc.
Strychnine in LSD is a myth. The government released a batch of LSD in the 1960s with strychnine to create a fear over the drug in the public (source: Acid Dreams), but why would a dealer put strychnine in the LSD?
If he wants to rip you off he can just sell you sugar cubes.
Some types probably had very little LSD actually in it. Knowing the nature of the drug scene, who knows what kind of weird crap is being passed off as ecstasy.
Yep.
