Do you even trip off the ergot alone, though?

thought it had to be sythesized and all that good stuff before it could have the effects of our modern day LSD...

but then again i have no idea

The assumption that the Divine Wheat of the Egyptians was an ergot is mine and may be wrong, but what i wrote about 'Kykeon' was said at first by A. Hoffmann :

"There was claims that the ingredients for the makeup of kykeon was water, barley and a mint. However, few believed this recipe since it was apparent that the kykeon was a psychoactive beverage. For many years, several species of psychoactive mushrooms were believed to be the key ingredient to this sacrament. However, in their book Road to Eleusis, Wasson, Hofmann and Ruck believed that the key ingredient was from an extract of ergot. " taken from 'Ergot of Rye II: The story of LSD' http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/wong/BOT135/LECT13.HTM

"Ancient Greek midwives used to give an ergot-based, gruel-like drink, called kykeon, to their patients about to give birth. Kykeon was also consumed during the autumn Eleusinia, the ancient Greek agricultural festival celebrated in honor of the goddess of agriculture, Demeter." taken from 'How the US Goverment created the drug problem in USA' http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig/kreca1.html

I dunno if you have read that article on the Lycaeum http://leda.lycaeum.org/?ID=10494 which seems quite rational, although i think that the author should have put an end to his theory a little sooner. He claims that ?Manna? on the Bible, that God gave to Moses from heavens, after their Exodus, was in fact psychoactive mushrooms.

We all know that Moses was NOT a Hebrew, but an Egyptian priest. Therefore, we can make another assumption that Moses knew about magical shroomies since his staying in Egypt?

I know its kind of assumption to an assumption? :wink:

Here's sacred geometry being used to age wine.

http://www.summerhill.bc.ca/pyramid.html

An exact replica of a pyramid (much smaller scale) was built to test the theory. I was told the company spent a million bucks to do it. I just recently toured the pyramid, sampled the purported pyramid-aged wine, and couldn't tell the difference. I'm no wine connosieur but I do love (purrrrr) the ICE wine.. Wine that only a few countries like Canada can produce it.
