I'll be giving a new version of the Mushrooms of Mexico talk March 5 in South Carolina, March 7 in Georgia and then a talk which includes Mexico, Psilocybe of Florida, DNA sequencing and more March 9 in Florida. The SC and GA talks are free and the Florida one is $10.
Details:
Monday, March 5
ALAN ROCKEFELLER will present ‘MUSHROOMS OF MEXICO 2018’ Mushrooms of Mexico includes 300 of his favorite recent photos from Mexico - especially Amanita, Psilocybe and interesting fungi that defy classification
Alan Rockefeller is a mycologist studying the mushrooms of Mexico and California. His hobbies include computer hacking, DNA sequencing, biohacking, microscopy and mushroom identification.
Remember, if you wish to participate in forays you need to be a current and paid member - that means you paid your dues September 30th, 2017 or later. To join or renew your membership you can do so here or at the meeting. We only use the funds for our speakers’ honorarium and travel, access to the Cheezem Center, and a nominal fee for the website.
When: Monday, March 5th. Meeting starts at 6:30 pm, arrive any time after 6:00 for specimen ID's, specific questions, and socializing. Where: The Charles K. Cheezem Education Center, 100 Thomas Green Blvd (578 Issaqueena Trail), Clemson. This is in Patrick Square, off of highway 123, across from Lowes. A map can be found here. Once you enter through the front door, the meeting location is in the large room straight ahead.
Food: Bring a snack to share, if you’d like. We will have a sign-up sheet for future meetings so that we have an evenish amount of yummy food at each meeting.
And Drink: Bring your own drinks, if you’d like, alcohol permitted. The kitchen is stocked with dishware and a refrigerator/freezer, icemaker, stove, oven, microwave - we just have to clean up before we leave.
Georgia: Wednesday, March 7 at 6:30 PM - 9 PM EST - Intown CommunityChurch, Atlanta, GA
https://www.facebook.com/events/1998796833701401/
Florida: Friday, March 9 at 6 PM - 8 PM EST. Fifield Hall - 2550 Hull Rd, Gainesville, Florida 32611

Damn, all to far again. You should come to the university of west Florida or University of south Alabama, the rednecks around here need some edumacatin on dem mushrooms.

That was pretty funny, just about everybody was flipped out when he said that.

Death angels give all Amanita a bad name to most people. I wonder how many think he's crazy.
I'm really disappointed I missed this.

I see how it is in Georgia. I can talk about eating magic mushrooms all I want, but talk about eating edible Amanitas and everyone loses their mind.

I would like to have been a fly on the wall to see what was said after your speech. Hopefully no one called you a druggie or anything like that 2 ur face. People in the deep south tend to be closed minded about anything that can be called a drug. They eat up that Jeff Sessions propaganda

Everyone was super polite, the audience was really into the talk.
I started out by identifying mushrooms live on Mushroom Observer and then did 30 minutes of DNA sequence analysis and building phylogenetic trees with Mega 7 before starting the Mexico powerpoint - that way no one could complain when I talked about Psilocybes.
They wouldn't have complained anyway, everyone in the audience was pro-psilocybe, or just kept quiet.
The Georgia talk didn't get recorded, but the South Carolina one was uploaded to youtube by David Daniel, who was sitting in the front row.

I don't know anyone who believes any of the propaganda bullshit the media spouts. But I'm sure there are a good bit around here that do. Most people I talk to have always been interested in them, they just don't trust buying them from some sketchy pot dealer. Hahaha.

Powerpoint slides from my talk today at University of Florida in Gainesville. No video exists.
It's a large file, half a gig. You will need MS powerpoint or the free Open Office to read it.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/FungalSequencing has some videos of Alan demonstrating his sequence analysis flow if you missed the talk.
I've never been to a mcg meeting before. I thought the entire talk was great. A lot of the older people were either napping or mind blown with the sequencing and genetics intro.

I wish I would have met up with some of you guys. Lots of laughter and audible gasps from different groups.
