I responded to your other post as well but here's the link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query...l=pubmed_docsum
EDIT: Just google "psychopharmacology Journal" and you'll get the link to the home page. Then go to the online edition. Then click the "online first" section.
The article plus commentaries are there. You'll need institutional access to get it though. I'd direct link but when I tried it somehow tried to include my access to it in the link.

I looked for a long time too, but couldn't find it. I suppose it's possible that it hasn't been posted yet. However, I did find this link: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2006/07_11_06.html
At the bottom it includes 2 other links -- one to a pdf of commentaries on the study, and the other a question & answer session with the study's lead researcher.

There's a post about this topic with a better news link, as well as this one on the exact same page of the forums as this one... Do you just not read these forums or something?

That is awesome. I especially like this part:
Quote:
Two months later, 24 of the participants filled out a questionnaire. Two-thirds called their reaction to psilocybin one of the five top most meaningful experiences of their lives. On another measure, one-third called it the most spiritually significant experience of their lives, with another 40 percent ranking it in the top five.
About 80 percent said that because of the psilocybin experience, they still had a sense of well-being or life satisfaction that was raised either "moderately" or "very much."

CNN sucks, as do all the other media outlets. They do 1 good thing on drugs for every 100,000 bad things. News in the US is entertainment, nothing more.

True, but one good thing is better than no good thing. You know how many people probably read that one article?
