and then my brother sent me a Map of Where Wildfires were burning in the Northern Hemisphere.
and I replied:
interesting Map... One thing I did not Know was: There have been A LOT of Wildfires in Brazil... as much as Canada if not more... The Amazon...
In My Humble Opinion the Climate Change Protest at Burning Man was Counter Productive... It had the effect of making protesters appear to be Jackasses... Just like the People that Super Glue themselves to Fine Art Paintings... and those Actions have Motivated Vast numbers of people to become Climate Change Deniers... "Oh, Those People are NUTS! Let's Just Have FUN! Let's Take a Drive... WHEE!"
I believe that the Main Cause is People Voluntarily Burning Gasoline... and People Voluntarily Flying on Jet Airplanes... and there has been ZERO Success in Getting the Attention of those people... and Getting THEM to Change their Behavior...
One simple solution would be to convert Empty Office Space into Apartments... That would cut commuting distances... so many people live in the Central Valley and then drive to the Bay Area to go to work...

My Brother Bought a Dozen Coffee Cups with Our Family Crest on it. Then He gave them away to members of our Family when he went to visit.
It was a Very Wonderful Gift. I made a Collage of Photos of My Family and Gave One to my Father… and everyone Else Shown… He Loved Drinking his Morning Tea while looking at everyone he Cared About.
Coffee Cups were how I got into Zazzle in the First Place… When I Got Hired at a New Job, My Wife Bought me a Coffee Cup with Original Psychedelic Art on it… I was Delighted and asked her: “Where did you get this?” and She Said: “Zazzle. And You Can Sell Your Own Art There Too!” and So I’ve been selling art ever since…

But I Read a Statement by Greta Thunberg saying something Like: People are Making Money off My Name... well... You better donate that profit to Charity or You are a "Bad Person" ... I understood her message and Since then I've Donated Every Cent to Charity... Save the Redwoods!
Teen climate activist Greta Thunberg said on Instagram on Wednesday (Jan 29) she has applied to register her name and that of the Fridays For Future movement she founded in 2018 in order to prevent them from being hijacked for fraudulent purposes.
Thunberg is a Swedish environmental activist on climate change whose campaigning has gained international recognition.

Happy Birthday Mary Microgram!!!
Denise Kaufman born October 5
Growing up in San Francisco during the 1960s placed Denise right in the center of the cultural revolution. Her commitment to social justice and exploratory approach to life led her to adventures in counterculture: to being arrested at UC Berkeley's Sproul Hall protests during the Free Speech Movement, to "getting on the bus” (as "Mary Microgram") with Ken Kesey, the Merry Pranksters and the Grateful Dead; to forming the legendary Ace of Cups—an all-girl band that opened for Jimi Hendrix, The Band, and Janis Joplin; to being one of the seven founding mothers of Island School on Kauai; to studying with Robert Nadeau Shihan, Yogi Bhajan, Bikram Choudhury, Pattabhi Jois, and Paul Grilley and to teaching yoga to Madonna, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Quincy Jones, and Jane Fonda.
Denise lives between Venice Beach and Kauai - playing music, teaching yoga, surfing and continuing to learn, channel inspiration and connect all those around her.
LSD was made Illegal in California on October 6 1966
"Bring the color gold... Bring photos of personal saints and gurus and heroes of the underground... Bring children... Flowers... Flutes... Drums... Feathers... Bands... Beads... Banners, flags, incense, chimes, gongs, cymbals, symbols, costumes, joy."
The heads in the Haight did what they do best -- they organized an impromptu party.
Beat influenced poet and underground paper editor Allen Cohen and artist Michael Bowen, both known for their work with the San Francisco Oracle, put out the invitation and the people responded.
Kesey arrived with his bus Furthur and the band of Merry Pranksters.
Bands like Big Brother and the Holding Company and the Grateful Dead performed. In fact, the Grateful Dead did their one and only live performance of Alice D. Millionaire, a song written for Owsley based on a San Francisco Chronicle headline about the band's sound engineer and legendary chemist friend.
"Without confrontation," said Allen Cohen, "we wanted to create a celebration of innocence. We were not guilty of using illegal substances. We were celebrating transcendental consciousness. The beauty of the universe. The beauty of being."
And here it is fifty years later. Marijuana prohibition is waning but LSD is still very much illegal in most of the world.
Intriguingly, October 7-9th, a day after the anniversary of the world's first LSD prohibition law, the state of California will be hosting a rock and roll concert. The musicians who are attending are Paul McCartney of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Bob Dylan, Neil Young of Buffalo Springfield and Roger Waters of Pink Floyd.
All six of those headliners were making popular music in October of 1966. All six of those headliners wrote songs that challenged culture and flirted with consciousness expansion. All six of those headliners changed the curve of culture.
This is an art blog that chronicles and promotes my ventures into the psychedelic art scene, but I feel it warrants stating that it is ludicrous that LSD is still illegal despite a complete lack of overdoses attributed to the drug. The mortality rate for LSD is virtually non-existent. People might do something insane on LSD. People might even hurt themselves and die on LSD but LSD "overdose" is non-fatal and essentially non-existent.
Alcohol in large quantities is fatal. Most prescription pills in large quantities are fatal. Nicotine in large quantities is fatal. LSD may radically distort perception, but it is non-fatal.
Fifty years is too long. We venerate our psychedelic pioneers but we still imprison casual users. Art and culture have benefitted far too much from entheogenic drugs. It is time they earn their proper place in the contemporary world.
"LSD Was Invented at the Same Time as the Atomic Bomb In Order To Balance the Universe." - Famous Quote... Who Said It? Dr. Albert Hofmann? Post Answers in the Comments Section!
LSD was invented in 1938 but its Psychedelic Properties were Discovered on April 19th, 1943. The Atomic Bomb was First Exploded on July 16th, 1945... Just Co-Incidence?
and Here's what Dr. Hofmann Had to Say About That!
https://maps.org/news-letters/v06n3/06346hof.html
LSD: Completely Personal
speech delivered to the 1996 Worlds of Consciousness Conference
in Heidelberg, Germany
by Dr. Albert Hofmann
One often asks oneself what roles planning and chance play in the realization of the most important events in our lives. With respect to a given event, this involves the question, just how much was destiny, how much free will? This question has preoccupied me again and again in relation to one of the most significant and consequential events in my life in relation to the discovery of LSD.
(Many Paragraphs later in the speech he says)
At about the same time [as the invention of LSD] nuclear energy became technically usable and the atomic bomb was developed. In comparison to traditional energy sources and weapons, a new dimension of menace and destruction became accessible. This corresponded to the potency-enhancement realized in the field of psychopharmaka, something like 1:5000 or 1:10,000-fold, comparing mescaline to LSD.
One could make the assumption that this coincidence might not be accidental, but rather was brought on the scene by the "Spirit of the Age." From this perspective the discovery of LSD could hardly be an accident.
One might reflect on a further idea, that LSD might have been predestined by some higher power to arise precisely at the time when the predominance of materialism with all its consequences over the past 100 years was being understood. LSD as an enlightening psychopharmakon along the path to a new, spiritual age!

So... there was Dr. Hofmann Questioning the Possibility that "LSD Was Invented at the Same Time as the Atomic Bomb In Order To Balance the Universe."
but I Still Haven't Found anyone that puts it all in ONE SENTENCE... and I Do Not Think that I Wrote that Quote...
SO... Who Said It? Post Answers in the Comments Section!

She was part of a movement to give LSD to the Leaders of the World. The top scientists, business leaders, artists, poets, actors, politicians, writers, musicians and athletes were to be given LSD and then they would use what they learned while high to rebuild society.

Great Books: Project MKULTRA:
CIA/LSD American History
"The Search for the Manchurian Candidate"
by John Marks
MKULTRA: Was a CIA Mind Control Project in the USA during the 1950's and 1960's. They were looking for a way to use drugs as weapons of war. For example: LSD as a way to simply get the "enemy" to lay down their arms, voluntarily... like, too stoned to fight...
The project conducted tests on college students at Stanford University. Ken Kesey and Robert Hunter both were employed. Later, Ken started having "ACID TEST" parties where the participants took LSD and danced to the Music of the Grateful Dead. Robert Hunter wrote lyrics for the Dead. and The "Whole Earth Catalog" was Written by Stewart Brand... His Book was Useful for Hippies that wanted to Go Live Off The Land and become Subsistence Farmers... or Marijuana Farmers... He was Also a Test Subject for MKULTRA.

50th anniversary of the Summer of Love... The Diggers, Haight Ashbury, LSD and the Grateful Dead. It certainly has been a Long Strange Trip. Congratulations to all those of us who have survived... One thing is for certain...
The culture of the United States was
radically different After the 1960's...
The conformism of the 1950's was blown away when LSD became widely available. Owsley made the chemical and made it available at Acid Tests with Ken Kesey and the Grateful Dead. He also gave it to the Beatles for their Magical Mystery Tour. The spirit lives on in a yearly camping trip called The Rainbow Gathering. It's like Woodstock but the performers are not paid and I'm in the Band.

Julia Butterfly Hill Said:
Dear Friends,
On December 18th, 1999, i returned to Terra Firma after over 2 years living aloft in the branches of my best friend, and best teacher, Luna.
I came down to a hurting world– constantly wanting and needing my help with everything they cared about. From their child’s book report, to trying to save local trees and community gardens, to ending animal cruelty for food, to creating the department of peace in response to endless wars. The issues and challenges were endless. And therefore the needs, wants, and calls on my time, person, and resources were, also, never ending.
I gave generously for over 15 years because of my deep love for all that connects us.
But the toll and price on me was too much.
After a much-needed break to focus on my health and wellbeing, i am slowly reentering public life. Although i still have some physical and health challenges, i have more time and energy now.
i recognize that there are certain things that always remain constant including people often want my time for answering questions for their children, book reports, class projects, interviews.
My many years of giving my time for free or very little is complete. i do however wish to make it possible that if people are actually willing to honor my time and energy in reciprocity, there are now ways they can do so.

A Course in Courage
A 7 Steps Journey with Global Activist, Author and Teacher Julia Butterfly Hill.
https://juliabutterflyhill.com/blog/
and
https://juliabutterflyhill.com/julia/
For 738 days Julia Butterfly Hill lived in the canopy of an ancient redwood tree, called Luna, to help make the world aware of the plight of ancient forests. Her courageous act of civil disobedience gained international attention for the redwoods as well as other environmental and social justice issues, which is chronicled in her book The Legacy of Luna: The Story of a Tree, a Woman, and the Struggle to Save the Redwoods.
Julia, with the great help of steelworkers and environmentalists, successfully negotiated to permanently protect the 1,000 year-old tree and a nearly three – acre buffer zone. Her two-year vigil informed the public that only 3% of the ancient redwood forests remain and that the Headwaters Forest Agreement, brokered by state and federal agencies and Pacific Lumber/Maxxam Corporation, will not adequately protect forests and species.
