Have always wondered what the next day would be like if everyone on the planet had a simultaneous Hoffman experience...i.e. dosed but not knowing when or how long exactly.....Ever read Riverworld??
Hooray for Bucky Fuller, whom Alpert quotes here, the most sane models for civilization ever ignored and suppressed, and for te forn quote remembered from Leasry, that pshycho...."Trust Your Nervous System"
kinda like the cover of the Hitch hiker's Guide...."Don't Panic!"
I suppose marijuana is a safer option for him at this stage of his life, he's in his seventies, afterall and also a stroke survivor. If he hadn't dedicated so much of his life to programs like the Death and Dying project and the Hanuman foundation, his approach to spiritual awareness evolving from an expanded consciousness would ring kinda hollow.
