Ride the red dragon to walhala....
I agree that Mr. Hoffmann was a scientist in the first place, and had very little to do with all that hippie trippin. He was just looking for a use of his invention that could lead to something positive. After reading most publications of Leary, about all the enlightments caused by use of LSD and various self experiments, i have to state: Basically LSD makes you high and trippin, act like you lost your mind, giggle about stupid stuff, and feel like riding a spaceship when you drive around in your car. But somehow it changes your point of view about life, the universe and everything....too much of it makes jack a dull boy...
