Not at all...
I'm saying that the anecdote "Those who know, don't speak. Those who speak, don't know." is not universally applicable. Sometimes those who don't know, don't speak so as to give the illusion that they know.
It's about power... and I despise it.
Of course, I won't get the chance to confront the guy... I'll be silenced by _________....

And they both want to sell you some informative books about the end of the world and elves.

Umm, excuse my ignorance but I've never seen nor heard of a book by Dennis McKenna on the "end of the world or elves".

I am late in coming but I have a few questions for Sclorch.
Please don't take this as flame, I honestly do want to know your answers and I have nothing against you.
I'm saying that the anecdote "Those who know, don't speak. Those who speak, don't know." is not universally applicable. Sometimes those who don't know, don't speak so as to give the illusion that they know.
It's about power... and I despise it.
So you are saying that because he doesn't want to speak about it is because he wants to convince everyone that he is a genius?
To me, it doesn't seem like an Ego trip to not want to bring up something. He didn't write the book about the Amazon trip and he doesn't want to talk about it. It seems to me that if he wanted everyone to believe he was some super genius that he would do a lot more convincing that just saying nothing. I can also say that IMO I think that if he talked about it all the time some people would say "why don't you shut up about it...you think everyone cares? You just like the sound of your own voice", etc. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Once again I just don't see that if someone doesn't want to discuss an intensely emotional time he had with his dead brother to perfect strangers why "it's about power".

He's just another idiot who thinks he found god when he was tripping. whatever...
When the world doesn't come to a crashing halt in 2012 (the "apocalypse" of his choice), he'll probably be dead and I won't get the chance to kick him in the nuts for conning innocent seekers (those that have the misfortune of believing in he and his brother's nonsense). People like the McKennas and Timothy Leary are the ones that fuck everything up for the rest of us. As long as entheogen-use is paired up with weird, wild, and wacky ideas like aliens, elves, armageddon, and so forth... entheogens will NEVER be made legal (it's a cultural thing).

Okay, I can understand where you are coming from there, whether I agree or not. I just did not see why it was about power and why their is something wrong with him not wanting to talk about it.
Although I don't consider the McKenna's "idiots", I don't agree with all their ideas either (not the least of which is the 2012 theary, though I heard Dennis' explanation throughly).
As long as entheogen-use is paired up with weird, wild, and wacky ideas like aliens, elves, armageddon, and so forth... entheogens will NEVER be made legal (it's a cultural thing).
However, some people believe Entheogen ARE paired up with these things and are just being truthful by talking about it.
I for one am really looking forward to his coming. I think you can learn something from everyone and someone who has been surfing the Entheogen brain waves for as long as he has just might turn me on to something I had not thought of.

im not sure if ill be around when the chat happens can some ask these questions for me . i read on a website that there was a story in a mushroom grow guide about terence getting plans to build a ufo from a entity he met on a mushroom trip it also said on the site the the story in the mushroom guide used a differnt name then terence . did terence realy get plans to build a ufo ?. did he get info about making a metal ufo or was it about how to make a ufo out of golden energy?. also i experenced synchronicitys related to the part of the cosmic trigger 1 that is about your book the invisible landscape . i had my book mark 2 or 3 pages before the part about your book when i stoped reading it on the full moon this september . i take some shrooms then i see visions of aliens slide out from behind fractals and start thinking that reality is a holgram created by aliens from hyperspace . then i did a wicca ritual saw a bunch more aliens then i got possesed after i invoked pan and something took control of me made me jump around on one foot in a circle till i was so tired that i fell over and my mind went blank reality disappered and i felt one with everything . the next day i start reading the cosmic trigger and get to the part that says the mekennas regard the universe as a holgram created by the interaction of 2 hyperuniverses, just as an oridinary hologram is created by the interaction of 2 lasers .then a few weeks later i get a cd called cosmosis - contact and there is someone saying something about reality being a hologram . then a week later i get a dvd called liquid crystal vision and they interview dj cybervixen and she says her body is a projection of her mind in this hologram reality and that your body contains info that you can tune in to then the movie switches to a shot of raja ram talking about tuning into othere dimensions and he says do othere dimensions exist of course they exist you experence them all time thru coincidence . also the 1st time they interveiw him on the dvd they start playing the song he made that sampled terence talking about dmt right before they talk to him . raja ram also says that the coincidences are part of the grooveology polocy that is hapening in alternate realitys and that there a sprits and giants on are side . do you beleave that hypersapce entitys are creating synchronictys in our reality ? if this is to long for dennis to read then just have him answer the questions and skip the part about the sychronictys but not the last question .
