- No, my god. You would turn into a vegetable! The original doctor who
- isolated LSD-25 (d-lysergic acid dieythlamide) was Dr. Albert Hoffman in
- 1943. His actual account of the experiments states that while isolating
- the compound and working with its chemical derivitaves, he accidently
- intoxicated himself. He says :"I could not imagine how this compound
- could have accidently found its way into my body in a sufficent quantity
- to produce such [hallucinogenic] phenomena."
- Little did he know!!
