And he hasn't been shot? Interesting. I guess psychedelic drug chemists tend to be nicer then your average meth cook or drug dealer. Interesting story though never heard about this stuff. SWIM always used to wonder what went down at that silo. Pretty much cause me and all my friends were pissed when there was no acid for a few years. hehe good times good times.

shamans never had stinky fingers.

Krystal Cole (the Neurosoup chick as she's more commonly known) is a dirty snitching rat. She, along with her soon-to-be husband Todd Skinner (who she later divorced) were witnesses against Pickard after the infamous LSD silo bust. Skinner (who is an even shadier character) is a government informant who admitted to setting Pickard up as the fall guy, illegally tampering with evidence, and a whole host of other things. Krystle was aware of all this and complicit in the instigation of Pickard's demise. She was also involved in a situation where she and Skinner kidnapped a young man and tortured him for several days administering a variety of drugs before ditching him in a field in a pile of cow excrement.

Do not support neurosoup. She's a rotten snitch.

Well, Skinner (her boyfriend and soon-to-be groom) was the one who set up the whole bust, but she was complicit in it, and testified to help put Pickard in prison.

Skinner just goes around setting up labs to produce scheduled drugs, (LSD, MDMA, and various compounds that Shulgin made famous) and when he gets wind that law enforcement is investigating, he sets someone up to take the fall and testifies against them. He's done it several times.

I read an account of a man on another forum who said taking freebase anally made him bleed (rougher for that route of administration?), but fumarate salts did not. (Anyone hear of or have actual real information about these things? )

Why not inject it in the eye? It might make the visuals more vivid and colourful. I'd choose intraocular any time over anal administration.

Would this be possible (not injecting obviously, but applying in solution)? Or would it be dangerous? I remember Maya Ethnobotanicals saying that piri piri (ergot actives) is squirted into Shipibo women's eyes, and that gives them a lifetime's worth of visions for making their patterned craftworks.

Wow. This is incredible. I MUST know more !

PIRI PIRI, MEDICINAL SEDGES: FOR VISION Native people cultivate numerous varieties of medicinal sedges to treat a wide range of health problems. Sedge roots, for example, are used to treat headaches, fevers, cramps, dysentery and wounds, as well easing childbirth and protecting babies from illness. Special sedge varieties are cultivated by Shipibo women to improve their skills in weaving magical tapestries that embody the spiritual universe, and it is customary when a girl is very young for her mother to squeeze a few drops of sap from the piri piri seed into her eyes to give her the ability to have visions of the designs she will make when she is older. The men cultivate sedges to improve their hunting skills. Since the plant is used for such a wide range of conditions, its powers were once dismissed as superstition. Pharmacological research, however, has now revealed the presence of ergot alkaloids within these plants, which are known to have diverse effects on the body – from stimulation of the nervous system to the constriction of blood vessels. These alkaloids are responsible for the wide range of sedge uses, but come, not from the plant itself, but from a fungus that infects it. There are a number of Western plants that are also said to produce visions – i.e. communion with the greater spirit of the world. The leaves of coltsfoot and angelica, when smoked, for example, will induce such visions, and damiana, when burned, will also produce these effects. Angelica has long been regarded as a spiritual plant with almost supernatural powers. It is linked to the archangel Raphael, who appeared in the dreams of a medieval monk and revealed the plant as a cure for plague. Native Americans used it in compresses to cure painful swellings and believed it sucked the spirit of pain out of the body before casting it to the four winds. It has also been heralded as an aid to overcoming alcohol addiction as its regular usage creates a dislike for the taste of alcohol. Recent research suggests that it can also help the body fight the spread of cancer. Its leaves can be added to salads and this is another way to diet this plant.
