I know that people say a whole eighth is a bit much for a first trip, but I also know that a bad trip often seems worthwhile in retrospect.

boardman, or whoever, would you care to elaborate on just how bad bad trips are? I've heard of thought loops and things happening...

Basically I'd like to avoid chowing only 2.0-2.5 and having 1.0-1.5 left over - it just seems like, what the hell good is that?
