^ His wife died in December 07, so just a short time before he did. I believe he had 3 or 4 kids and I think one of which died before Albert and his wife.

I mourned for seven days like a sad panda and then prayed to him for good trip. So far that one was the best trip I've ever had :'(

Isn't it ironic that one of greatest discoveries of all time was completely by accident?

I just recently watched Hoffman's Potion and it is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. I totally recommend anyone who hasn't watched it to check it out. I don't even remember hearing about it back when it was made in 02.

i haven't been here in so long, and the first post i see is Hoffman's departure.
I don't watch the news, or tv really (football/soccer only, at times like now), i don't read newspapers nor listen to radio, so this was a shock.
Last i heard about Hoffman, it was his 100th birthday; can't believe that was like 2 years ago.
wow
if the afterlife has any consequence to us now, i hope mr. hoffmam watches over us, and us is meant for those who don't abuse themselves and know what the light is.

"LSD: My Problem Child"
Albert Hofmann
(Read it. Great book.)
R.I.P.
I will take some tribute hits in his memory.
--------------------
Now, little by little I could begin to enjoy the unprecedented colors and plays of shapes that persisted behind my closed eyes. Kaleidoscopic, fantastic images surged in on me, alternating, variegated, opening and then closing themselves in circles and spirals, exploding in colored fountains, rearranging and hybridizing themselves in constant flux.
