HMMMMM....then im confused......i did a search for the name that you listed in your response, and everything ive found refers to them (Panaeolus campanulatus) as " the laughing mushroom", containing Psilocybin as there active compound. there l;isted in a whole lot of places on the web, even on MJ'S page......
are you sure we are talking about the same shroom?........everything says there not ass whoppers, but there mildly psycoactive hence the nickname "laughing mushroom" see links below:
http://leda.lycaeum.org/?ID=561
http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_images1.shtml
http://www.erowid.org/plants/plants2.shtml
this was taken from http://ethnopharmacology.com/fungi/
" Panaeolus campanulatus, a small mushroom with a dark brown stripe and a yellowish-brown cap, was frequently employed by Mazatec diviners who made a living by using its powers to locate stolen property and give sundry advice to their clients. Diviners who habitually use this kind of mushroom in their work are reported to sometimes suffer from senility and premature ageing as a result of too frequently consulting the fungal oracle. These considerable occupational hazards were probably due to the accumulation of toxins from the mildly poisonous mushrooms. Nevertheless, the fungus was employed as a medicine and its use in the treatment of rheumatism shows a remarkable continuity in ethnomedical practice, as both the ancient Aztecs and the twentieth-century Mexican Indians used it as such. 'Mushroom drunks' among the native peoples of the Russian Far East are also reported to suffer debilitating symptoms because of their over-indulgence with the fly-agaric. From rather closer to home comes an isolated account of a fungus being implicated in a 'drunk driver' case. This rather bizarre and unusual story was reported in the 'Daily Telegraph' on 13 March 1937, in which it seems that a mushroom-intoxicated driver was prosecuted at the Clerkenwell police court in London. "
so one of two things is wrong here, eather ive mis-identified it or you have mis-identified it, eather way, both identifications are listed as psycoactive.......

As long as they're Panaeolus, it wouldn't hurt anything to go ahead and bioassay them... Well... It might hurt your stomach a little bit(pans tend to mess with people's stomachs), but other than that no big probs.

Hello again, well the links that you have shown here are one thing, But Panaeolus campanulatus is another. They are not active in any way, But the links that you posted falsely indicates otherwise. Keep shroomin, GG

Sounds like everyone is clueless. Multiple links indicating the mushroom is active would have me believing that it is. My guess is that it is very weak, so you think that it is not active. I say take em and see what happens Not going to kill you (we hope) Anyway, Good luck

No definately do not eat these mushrooms.
They have no psychoactive properties to them. -And mjshroomers website and other data lists it this way.

First of all the Panaeolus campanulatus and Panaeolus sphinctrinus complex are not psyuchoactive.
The Panaeolus papilionaceus is. However the P. papilionaceus photo in Paul Stamet's book is of Panaeolus campanulatus/p. sphinctrinus specimens not of Panaeolus papilionaceus which is psychoactive and resempbles Panaeolus subbalteatus, a species to which is is macroscopically very close.
I have a latin description and one of the characteristics of the Papilionaceus is that the cap is flattened with age with a slight upturn in the edges of some caps.
The P. campanulatus or P. sphinctriuns has not only no flatened cap with age but is also characterized by heavilly jagged teeth-like fringes on the lower bottom edges of the caps after they open. This is another characteristic feature of P. sphinctrinus, not found in P. Papilionaceus. Aoso I should mention that several of the late 1800 published Japanese and Chinese journals reported the P. papilionaceus was responsible for numourous intoxications siunce the 2nd century, and published drawings of the P. Papilionaceus resemble P. subbalteatus, thus adding to their proper identification.
So Paul's picture and species are misiedentified.
have a ashroom day.
AS for many olde field guides, they accidently copied their information from other scholars who also relied on the information of others in regards to their mentioning that the P. campanulatus and/or P. sphinctrinus species were psychoactive.
