Greetings,

I have been lurking this wonderful site for a little while now and would like to get more actively involved.

My historical details are probably not very important but one thing I would like you to know about me is that I am truly a devoted lover of the spirit of mescalito. I have seen reasonably succesful extractions using toxic solvents in the past and I'm now fully engaged in learning about the non-toxic HCL and acetate extraction methods using d-limonene.

I want to learn the art of distilling and purifying the spirit of the magical cacti and really look forward to learning from the community here at DMT Nexus.

Thanks,
Defunkt

Thanks for your version of the history of the word mescaline and thank you for the welcome!

I certainly don't want to be critical either but your version sounds a bit like a generalization of Europeans as well (those stupid ignorant fools! ) and your version sounds a bit too contrived and simple to me but you may be right. I'm certainly aware of the brutal behavior of some of the Europeans conquistadors.

Here's another version of the origins of the name:



I personally like this version better!

Also, whether you find Castaneda a fraud or not, and there may be some truth to that, it's in the meaning of his books and the wisdom and truth I read in them that I use the term mescalito. However, if anyone should find the name mescalito offensive I will stop using it but it looks like we're stuck with the name mescaline for now.

I look forward to learning more here!

well meet my friend I have allways wanted to learn abot mecaline too! I don't get d-lime and seems too much work. I learned of a way the uses lye and xylene then after you have xylene you use hlc water to pull off the xylene. And the only impuritys are table salt. Due to that lye NaHo and acid makes salt! So this non toxic may just be a few steps that I might not take. I have heard of nontoxic dmt teks but they are not for me either I have been extreamly sucsessfull with lye and naptha doing basic A/B teks. With my finnished spice I don't even bother to wash or recrystalize it's so pure. So what is the point of being nontoxic? I see the ecological stand point but not the economical one.

welcome to the nexus!!!

Who knows but the name is probably here to stay. Maybe someone else will chime in with some additional info.

I got this from Narconon's website of all places! I love the "mind-boggling" definition of it's mental effects. Witch's brew, indeed!

I'll just say that here in Mexico "Mescalito" and "Mezcalito" are names used for a popular alcoholic beverage.
On the other hand "Hikuri" and "Peyote" are names used for the psychoactive cactus that contains mescaline.

Here I could even tell a random cop: "Shit man, you know what... I just love mescalito. Makes me feel great everytime."

...he wouldn't even have the slightest clue if I am talking about mescaline.

Thanks for the info, Clouds.

I like the term mescalito as well and, if it doesn't bother anyone, will continue using as a tribute to Don Juan. As you mentioned, it may actually be beneficial!

a bit simplistic and maybe not 100% accurate, but i agree, the whole non toxic food grade thing is wacko

yah, might be the case with material precipitated directly from np solovents.
very few cacti teks do that.
