GENEVA - Albert Hofmann, the father of the mind-altering drug LSD whose medical discovery grew into a notorious "problem child," died Tuesday. He was 102 http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/2008/02/10/pf-4838672.html Interesting story
Interesting description he gives of what it did to him. I've never taken drugs & I suppose his description of it is about as close as I'll ever get to experiancing the effects... Michelle
"Hofmann's hallucinogen inspired - and arguably corrupted - millions in the 1960's hippy generation.... But away from the psychedelic trips and flower children, horror stories emerged about people going on murder sprees or jumping out of windows while hallucinating. Heavy users suffered permanent psychological damage." I guess that sums it up right there...
I think the summary is in the next paragraph... "I produced the substance as a medicine. ... It's not my fault if people abused it," he once said.
No, avoiding you. No point talking to you when you're sober - you're as funny my ex on the 26th day of her pill cycle. Except she wasn't as bitchy. We'll talk next week... we can discuss your breakfast order.
