Hi DreaMTrix,

when they held the chat at Spiritplant the questions qere screen in a private chatbox where each person would be send a private chat message that they were next or what question did they want to ask. Then the moderator twlls each person who he will follow. You can give a person two people before him notic3 and then his question will come after the two people before him.

The implementation of that kind of moderation will just stifle conversation and alienate people. I don't think McKenna is some kind of pussy who can't wade through whatever crap may arise himself. If he doesn't want to interact and take his chances with the crowd, and possibly be asked some challenging questions that maybe a particular moderator doesn't see fit to allow, then you might as well just have him post a statement and be done with it.

There is nothing to fear from and open and honest exchange of ideas free from a moderator's prejudice. Especially in this type of media. You can always scroll the trolls for crying out loud. It beats being spoon fed.

Now open your hangar, here comes the airplane.

That is how it was done at Spiritplants and it worked fine. Go into their archives and read the whole hour and see who was stifled.

Re: Spiritplant / private chatbox

I think that is a good idea; it keeps things organized. Is this possible with shroomery? Do we need to be at a different site to chat with Dr. McKenna?

And for those who were unable to attend, I hope a Log will be posted, so everyone can benefit.

Im all for the Screening Questions Idea, Its pointless to have 5 ppl ask the same quesition.

I t sounds quite interesting, I would welcome the chance to participate.

I see there are ideas being bantered about as to who is invited, or a password protection or moderation. I have been on the NY chat and drug sense chat when they had guests. I hate to be a dissenter but those boards don't have to have much moderation or intervention; they don't have immature persons chatting (ps. NY does require that you register).

I suggest just the simple act of allowing registered users, here at the shroomery, to be able to get the password for that night and insist that they use their shroomery user name; it's not that much to ask. As to a hard format of questions, gosh, we could maybe take turns by using that little list of names on the right of the screen or left, depending on what program you use. All we need is one moderator with a kill button, I don't think Mr. McKenna would be opposed to a more informal setting for questions, but just in case there is a mod.
Now, that should allow informal questions, ensure some semblance of respectful behaviour and maybe we can talk to more guest's that we may not get a chance to ever again.

Thanks Hermes br,

I was actually cut off on that 2nd talk with Dennis. My computer went down beforwe I had been able to finish the question. I was going to bring up the use of mushrooms in the Sahara 9000 years ago.

Anyway it was a good chat.

Again, thanks for pasting the URL here so our fellow shrooms can decide what kind of qquestions they want to ask Dennis about.

I disagree on the ayahuasca treatment because I think that right now Ibogaine has been proven very successful in the treatment of opiate addiction and cocaine addiction. There is a group of doctors in aAmsterdam who charge 700 dollars U>S> for a Treatment session with ibogaine which the experience last for three days. They have actually documented many cases of cured clients in their research.

DreaMatrix , yes it was IRC.

if i can recall, one had to log in the SpiritPlants first ,then there was a link to the chat.
there was some instructions at the chat screen ,i let the Mod. know in private that i had a Q. and he would tell me how many guys where ahead of me.
when my turn was coming closer (i.e. say 2 askers) the Mod. reminded me , so at this time i had my question already typed, but it was not pre-moderated.
I'm looking forward for this meeting.

MJ, yeah ibogaine seems to be greater for withdraw syndrome.

best wishes.

Hi DreaMaTrix,

Not sure of this IRC. I fdo not have that on my computer and I was able to get my questions in until my computer turned off on me.

mj.

IT was a good method for running the chat though however it worked.

Hermes_br is probably right about what he says though. As I tell everyone over and over I am computer illiterate.

Preposted questions are a must... or use of a moderator as a middleman ie: you can ask a question to the moderator, and the moderator posts the question for you so nobody sais anything bad or offensive.

It'd be a really neat experience to read an interview with this man with people from the shroomery asking the questions. It'd be better to participate and be able to ask a question myself. It'd be the best if sometime in the future he returned for a second interview... and we wouldnt want to ruin our chances of that with someone posting an inappropriate post.

Speaking of inappropriate questions.

I was attending the 2nd International Conference on Hallucinogenic Mushrooms back in 1977 when I saw two dudes with ereal long hair approac Dr. Albert Hofmann and say, "Hey, Your the LSD dude. Can we cop a few hits from you man?"

Hofmann was embarresed and said to a colleague. "Its people like those two kids who screw it up for the rest of the world."

That is what I call an inappropriate comment.

Thanks Mr. Freedom, you know what I'm talking about. Drugsense.org is a leader in the war. The war for our very salvation.

Some of you people are simply fucked up. It has to be open posting or it isn't real. You have nothing to fear. Let it happen. You will be glad you did. Read the fucking forum events with our "drug war" celebrities at the NYT DP forum if you don't believe me. Yeah, you might need a moderator to remove the asshole who just wants to post, "hey your momma likes me to slap her nose on my balls" type posts. But other than that, let it happen, baby.

IT CAN HAPPEN HERE, TOO! The truth can be told.

It is time to wage a war against the war!!! END THE GENOCIDE NOW! The drug war is an attack on our people. We cannot let it continue.

Leaf, while I agree an open forum would be nice, I don't think you understand the nature of the vast majority of users of the chat on this board.
They are malcontent children that only wish to type line after line of drivel and to intterupt ANY intelligent conversation being engaged in; if only for their own amusments.
The admin, continualy, tolerates underage children, who post thier ages on this very board, to continue in opposition to the very rules designed to protect the shroomery from prosecution.

I doubt that anyone could seriously get Dennis to engage in that type of atmosphere. I for one would not put him through it.
