  • 1915:  Richard Evans Schultes is born.




Quote:

Richard Evans Schultes

Jan 12, 1915 - Apr 10, 2001
Summary
Richard Evans Schultes was a Boston-born and Harvard-educated botanical explorer, ethnobotanist and conservationist. To research his undergraduate thesis at Harvard, he travelled to Oklahoma with Weston LaBarre in 1936 to study the use of peyote among the Kiowa. In 1938 he travelled to Oaxaca, Mexico with Pablo Reko to seek the identity of teonanacatl. He and Reko were successful at identifying the species of mushrooms used by the Mazatec Indians and were the first to record the species used for their psychoactive properties.

In 1939 Schultes again travelled to Mexico in a successful attempt to verify the identity of ololiuqui. He travelled throughout Mexico for a few years researching and collecting botanical medicines, hallucinogens, and poisons, before earning his Ph.D. from Harvard in 1941. He soon became caught up in World War II when he was recruited by the United States to find an Amazonian source for rubber. He spent the next ten years working on this project.

In 1953 Schultes became the curator of the Orchid Herbarium at Harvard. He served as Curator of Ethnobotany for the Harvard Botanical Museum from 1958 to 1967 and as Executive Director from 1967-1970. In 1970 he was named Professor of Biology and Director of the Botanical Museum, positions he held until his retirement in 1985.

Schultes was a prolific writer, published over 450 technical papers and nine books on ethnobotany, and was widely recognized as one of the most distinguished figures in the field. He received many awards for his work including the Cross of Boyaca (Colombia's highest honour), the annual Gold Medal of the World Wildlife Fund, the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement and the Linnean Gold Medal (the highest award in the field of botany).

  • 1967:  "The LSD Story" episode of Dragnet airs




Quote:

Dragnet : The LSD Story - (1967)

The LSD Story was an episode of the Dragnet television series that appeared on the NBC network on January 12, 1967. It was produced and directed by Jack Webb, who also starred as Joe Friday. It is sometimes called "Blue Boy" after a character appearing on it. Friday and his partner Bill Gannon are working for the Los Angeles Police Department when they are called to a disturbance in MacArthur Park. It seems a man is gnawing the bark off a tree there. When Friday and Gannon arrive they find the young man, who identifies himself as "Blue Boy" and is acting very strangely. After Friday and Gannon arrest him, it transpires that Blue Boy, whose real name is Benjy Carver (played by Michael Burns) is under the influence of LSD. However as it is not illegal at that time to possess or use LSD, the most Carver can be charged with is public intoxication, for which he gets a light sentence. As time passes, the LAPD hear more and more about Carver and his involvement in selling and using LSD. At last they get two breaks: first LSD is made illegal, and secondly one of Carver's disgruntled former customers gives him up. The police raid an LSD party in progress. The participants are so stoned, no one even notices the cops entering, until Friday flips a light on. It turns out they just missed Carver. At last, Friday and Gannon get an address for Carver and, with the landlady's consent raid his apartment. It turns out they are too late again: Benjy Carver had died of an overdose about an hour earlier.

  • 2003:  Brandon Vedas aka Ripper dies




Quote:

Brandon Carl Vedas (April 21, 1981 – January 12, 2003), also known by his nickname ripper on IRC, of Phoenix, Arizona, United States, was a computer enthusiast, recreational drug user and member of the Shroomery.org community who died of an overdose of prescription drugs while discussing what he was doing via chat and webcam. His death led to debate about the responsibilities and roles of online communities in life-threatening situations.

Overview

The chat/webcam session apparently began by Vedas smoking cannabis in preparation, and then logging into the IRC channel. Upon entering the channel he announced “i got a grip of drugs” and indicated that his webcam was up, and that chatters were welcome to view his “grip of drugs” and his subsequent ingestion thereof. While some of the substances were illicit (e.g. cannabis), most of them had apparently been obtained through legitimate prescriptions for treatment of various illnesses from which Vedas was said to have suffered.

Vedas then began consuming psilocybe mushrooms, which had been stored in a prescription medication bottle. As the chat session progressed, one of the users in the channel, grphish, noted “that's a lot of klonopin” and this is thought to be when Vedas consumed 8 mg of clonazepam. Vedas continued by showing the webcam viewers what would be one of four bottles of methadone that he would consume over the course of the session, and, after noting this on the channel, proceeded to consume an entire bottle (reportedly 80 mg of methadone). After a brief respite, Vedas then consumed 110 mg of propranolol (Inderal), two Vicodin tablets, and 120 mg temazepam, which seem to have been taken in between descriptions given on the IRC channel.

During this process, Vedas maintained that this was "usual weekend behavior" for him and that he had consumed similar quantities of the same substances on previous occasions. "I told u I was hardcore" was one of the last things Vedas typed, and is often used sarcastically on internet message boards and discussion sites.

Upon consuming the remainder of the original batch of drugs from the beginning of the webcam session, Vedas began to retrieve and prepare to consume even more drugs that he had stashed throughout the room. It was at this point that the users of the channel began to voice their concerns that Vedas was taking things too far. Some pleaded with him to stop while others recommended that he seek immediate medical attention. After taking another large quantity of the same drugs he had already ingested, Vedas gave instructions that if anything were to go wrong, that they should try to contact him by calling his cell phone, and if that did not work, they should call the local authorities and give them the license plate number of his car, which was parked in his driveway and could easily be seen from the street.

When Vedas lost consciousness, users of the chatroom considered informing the police and asking that they trace Vedas's cellphone in order to locate him. However, the members of the channel were hesitant to contact the authorities for fear of involving Vedas and/or themselves in a police investigation. According to the chat logs, one user had even called 9-1-1 and asked the group if he was doing the right thing. After an emphatic "NO" response from another user, the user said "I talked my way out of it." and claimed that the police told them that there was no way to find Vedas with the information available. His mother discovered his body in the afternoon of January 12, 2003.

According to Vedas's brother, the information Brandon gave to the users in the chat, as well as the address in his domain name registration would have been enough for the police to locate Brandon, which he confirmed with local police. Later, Vedas's brother said about the incident, "It seems like the group mentality really contributed to it. These people treat it like somehow it's not the real world. They forget it's not just words on a screen."

Quote:

Richard Evans Schultes (SHULL-tees) (January 12, 1915 – April 10, 2001) may be considered the father of modern ethnobotany, for his studies of indigenous peoples' (especially the indigenous peoples of the Americas) uses of plants, including especially entheogenic or hallucinogenic plants (particularly in Mexico and the Amazon), for his lifelong collaborations with chemists, and for his charismatic influence as an educator at Harvard University on a number of students and colleagues who went on to write popular books and assume influential positions in museums, botanical gardens, and popular culture.

His book The Plants of the Gods: Their Sacred, Healing, and Hallucinogenic Powers (1979), co-authored with chemist Albert Hofmann, the discoverer of LSD, is considered his greatest popular work: it has never been out of print and was revised into an expanded second edition, based on a German translation by Christian Rätsch (1998), in 2001.

Biography

A Harvard student himself from 1934 to 1941, Schultes studied with Oakes Ames, orchidologist and Director of the Harvard Botanical Museum, who influenced his student research with the ritual use of peyote cactus among the Kiowa of Oklahoma, as well as his discovery of the lost identity of the Mexican hallucinogenic plants teonanácatl (various mushrooms belonging to the Psilocybe genus) and ololiuqui (a morning glory species) in Oaxaca, Mexico.

The first of many prolonged trips to the Upper Amazon began in 1941 as a Harvard Research Associate, and included a search for wild disease-resistant rubber species in an effort to free the United States from dependence on Southeast Asian rubber plantations which had become unavailable due to Japanese occupation in World War II]. The effort to create blight resistant rubber plantations in Central and South America was eventually terminated for political reasons despite protests from rubber companies, including Firestone. No remaining rubber trees collected by Schultes are being cultivated for the production of rubber.

Schultes' botanical fieldwork among Native American communities led him to be one of the first to alert the world about destruction of the Amazon rainforest and the disappearance of its native people. He collected over 30,000 herbarium specimens (including 300 species new to science) and published numerous ethnobotanical discoveries including the source of the dart poison known as curare, now commonly employed as a muscle relaxant during surgery.

Schultes became Curator of Harvard's Oakes Ames Orchid Herbarium in 1953, Curator of Economic Botany in 1958, and Professor of Biology in 1970. His ever-popular undergraduate course on Economic Botany was noted for his Victorian demeanor, lectures delivered while wearing a white lab coat, insistence on memorization of systematic botanical names, films depicting native ritual use of plant inebriants, blow pipe demonstrations, and hands-on labs (plant sources of grain, paper, caffeine, dyes, medicines, tropical fruits). His composed and kindly persona combined with expressive eye gestures masked his exotic experience and helped capture the imagination of the many students he inspired.

Influences

Schultes was initially influenced to study psychoactive drugs by Heinrich Kluver a leading scholar of this subject. (personal communication from Schultes). This interest evolved by way of Schultes' field observations on peyote, studying the peyote cult among the Plains Indians in his travels with Weston LaBarre in the early 1930s. (in 1938, LaBarre based The Peyote Cult on these travels and observations).

Schultes' personal hero was Richard Spruce, a naturalist who spent seventeen years exploring the Amazon Rainforest.

Schultes, in both his life and his work, has directly influenced notable people as diverse as biologist E.O. Wilson, physician Andrew Weil, psychologist Daniel Goleman, poet Allen Ginsberg, and authors Alejo Carpentier and William S. Burroughs. Tim Plowman, authority on the genus Erythroxylum (coca) and ethnobotanist Wade Davis were his students at Harvard.

Distinctions

Schultes received numerous awards and decorations including:

    * Gold Medal from the Linnean Society of London (1992), the most prestigious prize in botany;
    * Gold Medal from the World Wildlife Fund, considered by some to be the equivalent of the Nobel Prize for Conservation.

Quotations

    "You are not going back to the States, you are going right down into the Amazon and try to get the Indians to tap wild rubber. The Japanese have taken over all of Southeast Asia—we have no more rubber, which is essential, especially for the heavy military planes."

    "You have a feeling of achievement when you discover a new plant, even a plant that has no use." — Richard Evans Schultes

    "When he would make a mistake in class, students would shrug it off as the side effect from being intoxicated so many times" — The Lost Amazon

    The author of a Los Angeles Times article stated "...a psychedelic trip as an earth shaking experience." In reply Schultes said, "That's funny, Bill, all I saw was colors."

    Talking to a visitor of his station in the Amazon Schultes said, "Richard Spruce? He is my hero."
    He also said, "I know every tree, every single tree one can see from here to the Jirijirimo."

15th anniversary of the death of Ripper today.  It was one of the darkest moments in Shroomery history.  I can't believe it's really been that long.  Hopefully it served as a cautionary tale and saved other lives.

It definitely is.  But this date in psychedelic history isn't a complete loss.  For instance, today is Richard Evans Schultes' 105th birthday! 

Also, this is a special edition of Today In Psychedelic History for me.  The series starts to get really good for me now.  This is the first thread that was started in 2010.  Now it's 2020.  So I've been doing this for a full 10 years now.  A full decade.  It started out as a series of threads in which we could all contemplate and discuss the significance (or lack thereof) of each day in history.  I quickly realized that almost no one cares about this stuff :lol:.  At that point, I decided to make these threads as my version of durational art or endurance art.  The threads and posts themselves may not be impressive, but the art is in the passage of time and the completely illogical dedication to the project.  In other words a painting can't be appreciated when you put your face right up against it or if you only see one stroke of the brush.  Each year is a brushstroke and the piece can only be seen from the perspective of many years gone by. 

I still may be the only one seeing this.  I may just be typing to myself right now.  But even if that's the case, I still feel a sense of satisfaction from having gone this far.  Now I will contemplate whether or not the piece is complete or if I should go on.  So I'll either end it this year or maybe go on and take another look at the piece in 2030, if I'm still alive.

Yeah, but his was probably most notable because it attracted a lot of media attention. Other than Silk Road, it's probably the most that The Shroomery has been covered by the media. Sadly. :sad:
