Ok, so who thinks that those crazy people in Oregon who are cooking meth in their kitchens should give up on that illegal crap and learn about mescalin?

I loved the phrase "in suitable doses" when referring to how much mescalin will alter your reality. He wrote that it changes the quality of consciousness more profoundly, but it's less toxic. Why didn't we ever learn about this one in middle school health class? Cops afraid kids will open an underground mescalin ring? And I know that he is sure to be specific about taking it in reasonable doses, but could it kill someone?

Last year in my kinesiology class, we got into a huge debate (which happens every single time you're involved in any health class) about.... TA DA alcohol versus marijuana. Which is more harmful? What are the long term effects? Which one gives you a better ride for your money? I found myself wondering the same thing about this apparent Wonder Drug. Someone should devote some money to a study on mescalin and it's effects both long and short term, as well as exactly how it effects the body. And not just those doctors who were dosing themselves to try to understand their patients. Crazy fools.
