Delta9 you say this a lot
You see Timothy Leary fucked everything up because he encouraged students to drop out.
I very seriously doubt he meant drop out as in school.

He said:
Six words: drop out, turn on, then come back and tune it in... and then drop out again, and turn on, and tune it back in... it's a rhythm... most of us think God made this universe in nature-subject object-predicate sentences... turn on, tune in, drop out... period, end of paragraph. Turn the page... it's all a rhythm... it's all a beat. You turn on, you find it inside, and then you have to come back (since you can't stay high all the time) and you have to build a better model. But don't get caught - don't get hooked - don't get attracted by the thing you're building, cause... you gotta drop out again. It's a cycle. Turn on, tune in, drop out. Keep it going, keep it going... the nervous system works that way... gotta keep it flowing, keep it flowing...
In fact I am fairly certain he meant 'drop out' as in comming down from the trip and analysing it, dropping out of society, away from conformity...not school.
