i never thought this before i talked to my uncle who was a hippy in the 60s. Its well known that the government was worried about americas youth..they were united for one cause to make a change in the US government..LSD i believe was discovered by the Governement and was put out onto the streets to control the youth..weird how it was legal then too..i think the governement used LSD to keep the youth of the 60s from really changin ne thing..ne one who has tried acid before knows your not really gonna do #...just hangout..i think the governemnet was so worried about the youth that they put out acid...made it available and legal to keep the people opressed and too messed up to physically change anything..maybe im wrong and just too paranoid

The creator of LSD is Albert Hofmann.

thanks for the link logiclock..i have heard about that project..it all kinda makes sense to me...

Oh yeah, I remember him. His journal is out there somewhere; he describes the effects of his discovery (evidently he couldn't resist trying it himself). His accounts were pretty creepy: it was obvious he was enjoying it, but he was trying to be scientific at the same time.

If LSD is a government conspiracy.....thats the best godamn conpiracy ever. . . . .

Yep they were testing a lot of stuff back then for that it has actually come out that they were doing that and testing it on unsuspecting people to see if they could use it for mind control and yet most people will say our government would never do that. LOL

i don't think it's a project to control people, most the people in the 60s didn't even wanna change stuff it was "a lot of middle-class kids with long hair walking around in trendy clothes" they didn't care about changing everything, just like all the people on here don't seem to want to change anything very much, but we all like it bitch about it.
If you really wanted to do something u could use the acid to program your own brain to do something, read john lily's books they'll teach u how, he was around back then too, just like tim leary. it's obvious people dind't wanna fix # or it would'a happened, especially with lsd being used by everyone. what i think is that most the people were just doing acid to get #ed up and they were being hippies because it was cool, and if they were protesting anything it was likely the vietnam gook slaughter, and not anything that would really change things.

You're theory is not so unbelievable, but I think it could apply to almost any kind of drugs, even alcohol? I don't see why LSD is so different. (yes I tried)

ya gotta see the movie jacobs ladder!!!!!

He discovered it, LSD is a naturally occuring chemical, although most of it is synthetic.
Also, if I remember right, he discovered some blight mold in a petrie dish he was growing cultures in. He jabbed the mold with his finger then, put his finger in his mouth. Then he described the beautiful colors. He didn't try it out on purpose or for fun.

Glad you agree! Did you do acid whilst on duty? Like on a ship or something, that would be fun

Nice link HippieDude. Thanks for that. I have a really big interest in mild altering chemicals . . .

LSD or Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (the word for acid starts with an 's' in German) , is actually a synthetic chemical which can be derived through a complex chemical process from LSA or Lysergic Acid among other starting materials. LSA is a naturally occuring compound found in Morning Glory or Woodrose seeds. LSA does exhibit somewhat similar effects to lsd, but in my experiance the trip just makes you feel like crap and comes no where near the awe-inspiring effects of LSD.


p.s.
I am not a drug user

LSD when used in the right way can be a very power Mind Control drug. However, for it to be used in that way it usually requires other forms of Control being administered at the same time. For example, LSD along with Hypnosis, Trauma, Sensory Deprivation, etc. Basically without the extra Control stuff being done at the same time all you have is an altered mental state which eventually wears off. But if you can 'Program' the mind while it is in that altered awareness stage then that is really where the Control comes in.

It's rumored that the big Acid problem during woodstock was a planned action by the government at introducing a very dangerous and powerful form of LSD. The phrase, "Don't eat the Brown Acid!" may sound familiar to some of you.

In my experience it's always been more of an Mind Expanding experience. It tears down ones ego and alters the senses to various degrees which, if handled properly and constructively (for lack of better words), it can be a very profound experience.

However, what most people need to be aware of is that true LSD is rarely ever found now. Usually it is some other drug and/or poison which is still capable of inducing a psychedelic experience. LSD-25 is the real and true formula and is a powerful hallucinogenic while also being less 'tweaky' & 'harsh' of an experience than the other stuff which usually is said to be the result of strychnine being used among other things.

IMO, for anyone who feels that they would like to try it, I would advise that, aside from taking steps in order to do it in a safe setting, that you should try some other form of hallucinogenic. Unless you are very sure that what you're getting and taking is real 'clean' LSD, you're not going to get what you're looking for and very well could do some damage that you wish you hadn't. In fact, IMO, most people should probably start out with something easy like spinning in circles real fast or looking at the sun or something instead. Some people just are not ready to experience certain things so quickly and to such a degree. But then again there are those who are ready too. In other words, be very sure of what you're doing before choosing between the Red & Blue Pill!
