Good point, Gandalf... You're a smart wizard By chemical reactions, I did not mean entire new sets of chemicals being delivered, I should have specified the whole process of seretonin reuptake blockers, dopamine receptor signaling with D1 and D2 receptors with satiety, stuff like that, but I didn't think anyone save a few members could understand that stuff stoned :P

Beachguy- I repsect your view on this particular topic, however, note that I used the term "know the limits" in my original post; I enjoy SAFE recreational substances that have very low if not nonexistent rates of overdoses- for what it's worth, I will never use the Big Four (I'm pretty sure most of you know what I'm talking about), as well as prescription drugs recreationally. The substances I choose to use are non-addictive, non-lethal, and have not shown any significant effects from long-term use- at any rate, these substances are not being taken multiple times in a reasonably short period of time.

If someone else chooses to use substances that are very addictive and damaging to the body, that is their discretion; although I do not condone it, I realize people will make their own decisions regarding what they choose to take or not to take.

I suggest checking out Timothy Leary's manual on Info-Psychology if you're more interested in psychological impact of technology on humans. It's an excellent read.
Purple Banana Reviewed by Purple Banana on . Mind expansion society Wouldn't it be neat to have a society, like an organization (not too big, though) with people who are genuinely interested in just seeing the psychological and physical effects of different herbs and drugs just for sensory experience? People who honestly respect substances, know their limits, and who were generally very curious? I've always been like that, and I know only a few people who embrace that same attitude as well. Would you join this organization if it existed? Rating: 5
