SERIOUS QUESTION: Does LSD Improve Long term Memory? What is YOUR Experience? One fact I have noticed is that some events SEEM MORE SIGNIFICANT and are easier to remember than others. For example:

Since I am 67 Years Old I'm starting to have trouble remembering events in my life. My Trips STAND OUT as Important Events in My Life...

Also, I find that reading and writing to Facebook Groups of people I know is useful for triggering memories. True Brain Training that works. This group inspired me to write down every event in my entire life... My AutoBiography...

One fact I have noticed is that some events SEEM MORE SIGNIFICANT and are easier to remember than others. For example: I saw all three Star Wars Movies in the Theater. I don't really remember that experience as different than my memories of watching reruns on TV. EXCEPT The Third Movie... I went on opening night and bought some LSD from a Tie Dyed Person in line... THAT MOVIE EVENT STANDS OUT! The Emperor saying "and now young Skywalker, you must die..." is VIVID! Also driving home I went thru some road construction with those super bright lights... It felt like I was piloting one of those spaceships from the movie... Yes, I have driven a car on LSD... The other time was at a George Harrison Concert... Right after he played the Concert for Bangladesh he went on tour with Ravi Shankar and Billy Preston. I was truly annoyed by the people in the audience who BOOED Ravi Shankar. I guess they didn't like Indian Music and were impatient to hear a BEATLE. The High point of the Show was Billy Preston doing Space Race... Anyway, I had difficulty finding the exit from the parking lot that night. No trouble actually driving but I got lost... 

Some decades are a Mystery... Like the Late 1990s... I was drinking Alcohol. Don't Do That. There are better quality drugs... For Example: Marijuana, LSD, Peyote, Magic Mushrooms, DMT and that Unknown Chemical I Ate at the Grateful Dead Concert at RFK Stadium... all of a sudden I realized I was tripping on Something Totally Different... Maybe MDMA? The Stadium Lights swelled up to be 20 feet in diameter... and I did a SUPER SLOW POWER WALK all the way out to my car... People were Laughing at me because I took a step, waited until I GROKKED that exact location Completely, then took another step... and GROKKED that new location... Hey, it was totally different and worthy of study... They said: "Watch OUT for that guy, he's walking really fast and might run you over!" I had just read some Carlos Castaneda books and was interested in Power Walking... In his case, he was able to run through the desert in total darkness... my experience was the opposite.

I also liked to eat Heavenly Blue Morning Glory Seeds. They contain LSA, a chemical that is similar to LSD. It was really fun to drive my wife's sports car on the twisty mountain roads near Santa Cruz... 

In a classic example of "Hey Kids, Don't do this at Home..." I do not recommend driving a car high on psychedelics. DON'T Do It! Hire a Chauffeur! or go way out into the woods on a backpacking trip... those are some of the best trips! Since you are far away from Law Enforcement... Crazy Behavior is Tolerated!

A Million Trips Later, What was LSD All About Anyway? Was it a Recreational Drug? Was it More Like a Telephone that Allowed People to Call GOD DIRECTLY?

Was it a Significant Event in The History of The World or as Trivial as a Roller Coaster Ride? We Did Get a Lot of Excellent Rock Music Songs. Is it Even Possible to Buy a "Stairway to Heaven" anymore? 

I Have Noticed that People Who Had the Psychedelic Experience Turned Out to BE NICE, KIND and HAPPY. GREED FREAKS Often Missed Out on "The Sixties..." 

The CIA Project MKULTRA Concluded that LSD Had No Value as a "Weapon of War." Does it Have a Value as a "Weapon of PEACE?" In General, Populations that Took LSD Turned Out To Be LESS VIOLENT than Similar Groups... Acidheads are often interested in Art, Music, Poetry, Organic Farming, Love, Peace, Ecology... GEE, What If Everyone Was Like That? 

We are Seeing a Movement to Legalize Magic Mushrooms... What About LSD and Peyote? What IF We Legalize Medicinal Psychedelics FIRST and then Recreational Psychedelics Later. The Main Advantage to Legalization is there Would Not Be the FEAR of Getting Arrested as a Setting for Your Trip. I Have Experienced that Tripping WAY OUT IN THE WOODS has a FREEDOM aspect to it. On Occasions where My Friends and I Were the Only People for Miles Around... We were More Relaxed than Tripping in Public. 

ANOTHER Massive Advantage is that the Chemical Fabrication of LSD Would be Better Quality. Often, Illegal Chemists Make a Substandard Product OR Sell an Entirely Different Chemical (DOM) and Call it "ACID" - I Have Spoken with People that Took DOM (sometimes called STP) and their Three Day Trip was Frightening and Awful. We Would Certainly Reduce the Number of Trips to the Emergency Room with Quality Control. 

What about all the recent talk about embracing Death? Will We Be Grateful?

Let's Cut the defense budget to half 

by ending CrazyWars... 

I wonder what the Mission is... 

Any GOAL? Anything?

 Obviously, It's not to defend the USA. The Military has not Defended the USA since 1945. There was a real attack on us on 9/11/2001 but the military failed to protect the country. Total Failure... So there must be some other reason we have invaded Vietnam, Nicaragua, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. Is it simply to sell weapons to the Pentagon? Whenever we have a war we sell a lot of weapons, meals, tents, bandages, trucks, and airplanes... Corporations make a great profit. Soldiers die, civilians die, enemies die, but nothing is really accomplished. After all, what difference did it make who won the war in Nicaragua? None. It made a difference to the people of Nicaragua but it had no effect on life here in the USA. None of these Crazy Wars have made any difference to the people of the USA. NONE! The only military action that made any sense was the dozen men that assassinated Osama bin Laden. That was a worthwhile mission.


Therefore, It's really important to remember to NOT VOLUNTEER for the military. I saw President Trump talking at a Wounded Warrior Event today and it reminded me that all those people VOLUNTEERED to go die for nothing. OOPS, they got wounded because ___________. Fill in the blank if you know why. Was it simply because they couldn't find a civilian job and the military was hiring? Was it because they saw a John Wayne movie and got all inspired? Was it because they were easily brainwashed?

If we cut defense spending in half we could afford many wonderful things. We could prevent hunger 100%. We could pay for health care for all. We could pay for great school for all. We could pay teachers more... Not only is defense money wasted but people's lives are wasted also. The engineers that invented drone airplanes could have been designing better electric cars... BUT, they wasted their talents making drones... Most soldiers spend their entire career without once doing anything of value. What IF we hired them to rebuild our infrastructure? We have roads that need paving but no money to fund construction crews. WHAT IF WE STARTED BEING SMART?

So, what can one person DO to end Crazywar? Vote Democratic... and write to your representatives and ask them to stop funding stupid stuff. For example: You could copy and paste this message and email it to them.

If the Remote Control for the TV Stops Working, Rotate the Batteries While They Are In The Battery Compartment With Your Finger...

If you Spin the Batteries, 
That Often Gives the Remote Just Enough Power to Function. 

 What I think happens is that the rotation causes a tiny amount of rust to be worn away... increasing the conductivity between the battery and the holder. My Niece Taught Me this Trick. 

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF A DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPH? Often, I see on the "Bones" TV Show, Angela does magic with her computer and makes the photos dramatically clearer...

 Sure, that's FICTION but I find it Inspirational... What IF I re-sampled the image twice the size and used math averaging to create new colors between pixels? Somehow, that doesn't work... I also tried Re-sampling 2X, making two layers, averaging one, sharpening the other and blending the two 50-50... Nope, that doesn't work... 

Maybe if I re-sampled TEN TIMES the size... If i could just learn this technique I could store it as an automatic series of actions... and then, Just like Angela, I could click a button and reveal the clue!
