Follow on from the Hoffman thread... Its amazing to think what else LSD has led to. There's the obvious ones like The Magic Roundabout etc but organic food and vegeburgers? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7377041.stm Favourite quote: I can just imagine a load of old codgers aged 70-100 tripping their tits off at Hoffman's 100th!!
lol its mad to think now but all over those who were taking it in its heyday are kicking on to 70 now lol
He had no idea how much he was going to change the course of history when he was working in the lab that day. Without him there wouldn't have been massive advancements in psychiatry due to the study of LSD resulting in anti-psychotics, they'd probably still be having limited success with brain lobotomy's and electroshock therapy. There would have been no hippie era in the 1960's and the massive impact it had on music and the civil rights movement. Even the impact LSD had on the human rights movement - and psy trance scene of course , outweighs any negatives in my opinion.
