It's made with peanut butter (see other thread)!
Seriously, d-LySergic acid Diethylamide is a hallucinogenic indolamine which is active at serotonin (5-hydroxy tryptamine) receptor sites in the central nervous system.
While chemically similar to the active ingredient in mushrooms, psilocybin, it actually is derived from synthetically modifying the extracts of a grain fungus called ergot.
It is not something that can be easily made by just anyone. Not only is advanced organic chemistry methods and lab techniques required, but the precursors and chemicals needed are beyond the ability of most lay people to obtain.

What's that mean? Was I helpful or not?
I've seen that business before with just dots in a post, but I must confess, I have no idea what it means...

I somehow think he has no idea what you just said..
By the way.. My acidhead friend is always telling me that "not even scientists know how it works in your brain, its still a mystery." About the receptor sites, is that proven? Or just theory?

Mostly theory really, and I'm not up on the latest, but last time I checked some of the dominant theories that made sense to me was that LSD acted as a mixed agonist/antagonist across a range of 5HT receptor sub-types. There was also a slight dopaminergic component, either through direct Dx receptor binding, or through collateral pre-synaptic dopamine release.
It is an area that I've been meaning to freshen up on. Perhaps this winter, I will...

Thats the same receptor site that Psilocybin is active at, no?
I've got a friend who said he know's these guys who are going to make LSD. I said hell no, it wont happen. They don't have the knowledge or resources to do it. Getting the precursors is hard enough, much less actualy making it.

LSD was tested extensivly in the CIA, on it's own agents. I'm sure the exact reactions that occur in the brain once the substance enters are well documented with the latest in 3D MRI technology, or whatever Maybe not though... I would at least like to think that a group of scientists, whether they're government ones or not, has done research like this recently. Anyone got links? Would the information even be readily available to the public since hallucinogens are illegal?

Thats the thing, NO ONE is doing LSD research anymore, not with the actual substance... or at least thats how it was a while ago, I'm not to fresh on this subject myself.. But I would think that if there were any studies going on, someone here at the Shroomery would know..

It's also that this whole area of brain chemistry in highly complex, and not fully understood, at this time. Ultimately, you are getting into areas of proteomics, and then into areas of advanced logic -- in terms of how these different neuronal-synaptic sites interact with other neuronal-synaptic sites.
We?re talking what here, 100 Trillion neurons, each of which may have up to several thousand synaptic connections. Each synapse has a plethora of varying proteins which afford it function (i.e. different types of inhibitory and excitatory post synaptic receptors, pre-synaptic uptake pumps, vesicles, and varying pre-synaptic receptors).
We are just beginning to grasp how little we truly know in these areas, and how far we have to go before we even start asking the right questions, or developing sophisticated enough tools to study these things.

Thats what I love about this branch of science. I can walk in without a fucking clue and be right up there with the best of them.

I thought it was made with Morning glory seeds and tartar sauce.
