i haven't done lsd... but ive done shrooms a few times. does that mean i can win a nobel prize too?! seriously though.. i can see where he's coming from. If I was on the verge of some huge discovery and i dropped acid.. i have a feeling i know where the trip would lead. psychedelics allow me to think outside the box to a MUCH greater extent then i normally can. perhaps looking at his experiments from a different perspective helped him as well.

Interesting thing about the term "psychedelic idealists" is that I had never heard the term before I started using it. Someone was trying to tell me that the definition I gave of "psychedelic idealist" was so narrow that almost nobody else would agree on the definition. Another person came up with a link to a doctoral thesis that someone was doing on 'psychedelic idealists (on the internet)' who was using the same definition of me. It's definately a recognizeable group, IMO.

Once, i was basically failing a chem class, and a single night on lsd towards the end of the semester was responsible for me pulling a B in the class. I think that is why i thought the whole LSD inspired Nobel Prize story to be so cool. Although im sure most people who have used psychedelics would think its a pretty cool story
Kary Mullis seems to be a pretty interesting guy. Although I was reading some of his theories on AIDS which seem kind of far out, i think he said AIDS isn't caused by HIV, but by the medications they give people to treat HIV. i dont really know about that...but i still think he's interesting

Once, I was doing very poorly in a math class. I studied while on LSD a number of times and my average went up over 30%. I suspect that it may have had something to do with the ability to visual graphs. I can't be sure of that though. It might simply have been related to the fact that I was now putting a lot more time into studying math.
Hell, I went into my last year of high school chemistry with an average around 65%. The last month before exams I did LSD once every 3 to 4 days. I did half a sheet in that month. I studied for chemistry during the comedowns of some of the trips close to my chemistry exam. I almost got 100% on my exam. Was it the LSD? Or was it simply that I was now actually putting a lot of time into studying chemistry?

So what are you saying? Did you visualize the graphs or what?

I did visualize the graphs, but that doesn't prove to me that LSD helped me learn math. Also, it doesn't mean that I couldn't have done it without LSD. The correlation between LSD use and the improved marks doesn't imply causation. I suspect that in the case of the math marks, the LSD may've helped, due to the visualization of the graphs, but I can't say for certain. That's what I'm saying. I don't really know, even though this happened inside my own head.

"okay man...you have made shitloads of posts in lots of acid/shroom threads about how they can't prove that psychedelics have benefited anybody, etc.....we ALL know where you stand....if you want to keep arguing that, the go ahead and do it in some other threads, but please dont ruin my post by doing that here."
Maybe he says that because he likes PCP, look at his avatar, if thats his idea of tripping???
The right person can not only enjoy psychedelics ...but of course you could get smarter. And there are more famous acid users then you might realize, anyone who thinks that psychedelics and quatum physics dont relate to each other or that LSD might help someone understand it , has NOT read ANYTHING about these subjects.
Good post 5 SHROOMS!

I have never used PCP.
Really though, you're implication seems to be that obviously there's something wrong with me if I think a PCP trip is a real trip. Do you understand that you're being snobby about psychedelic drugs?

I've read about both. They do relate to each other, just like any two subjects relate to each other. Agriculture also relates to quantum physics. Of course, you're suggesting something more profound, but you're too vague about it for me to understand.
I highly doubt that Erwin Schrodinger was using LSD when he came up with his famous wave equation or that Max Plank was dropping acid when he proposed the idea of energy being quantized.

Psychedelics and quantum physics? What is the relation? I've read a lot about psychedelics and quantum physics, can't find a major relation.
