 there is no known overdose to LSD ....only minds that snap, and lame
speedy effects from  people whom do not take the time to properly
synthesize LSD....most do not.....my understanding is that the last year
true clean LSD was actually making the rounds in USA with any real
frequency was 1974.....

VERY informative about HUW, Melvyn...thank you.....I wouldn't want to be in
that position....I'd end up snapping as well.........mdc (already did?)
