the results are interesting but after the end of polling I would like to know the results, first on RSS and second in general in a post somewhere, as well as making available the results when someone searches in the search box :)

LSD

After having in excess of 100 L.S.D trips myself, (tripping as we called it) possibly more like 300; (I lost count there somewhere); I do feel qualified to comment on the subject.
I'm both emotionally & mentally scared from the experience, as are several of my friends, some not coping with even one L.S.D. trip.
Even so, I loved the effect, the feeling that we could see everything so clearly.
With all our senses so heightened, the solutions to all man kinds problems were obvious & appeared easily attainable with a little cooperation.
We were in an enlightened state of mind.
Or were we ?
Perhaps legalisation would offer a more regulated strength product.
