Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

Re: Father of LSD
Believe it or not, his invention is what's behind the extremely deep and experimental musical and artistic boom around 60-70s. It was presented as "the medication that cures", encouraged to use hence was not administered at all.
That's my personal view though. However, looking back at what ones like Jefferson Airplane, Pink Floyd, Blue Öyster Cult, Beatles; the psychedelic music had lived its golden years.
I absolutely avoid and hate any kind of drugs but for a man who had affected the popular culture in big deal around the world, RIP.Last edited by LeftEyeNine; 04-30-2008 at 18:12.
