Depending on temperament, I suggest LSD. Set aside 8 hrs you
won't need. Get ready for specialfx. I've tried a bunch (just
the 'classics' I suppose) and that was the only one that was
worthwhile for the trouble. I'd stay away from opiates and
derivitives because they're physically addictive. I don't think
many of the others are physically addictive, unless you count
nicotine - which *really* is addictive too. Crack I tried twice.
Crack was strange: I liked it and initially had the strong want
for more (for about 4 hrs) but after that, nothing except for
one peculiar thing: For 10 years afterwards, I could TASTE it
right in the back of my throat just thinking about it. I can
describe it: a burnt sweet plastic taste... but I can't taste it
anymore. I'd smell it from far away. I didn't feel compelled to
have any - just a weird taste-memory. It's gone completely now
though. But 10 years... man. Long time. And the 8 hrs for LSD?
That's 4 hours of fun and 4 hours of, "ok, I REALLY want to go
to sleep now...this is annoying". = There would be though. The
difference is who is pocketing the profit. Many will have their
hands out for it. It would have to be strictly laid out and
negotiated between numerous parties for it even to be
considered, especially in very large countries like the USA. The
price point would have to be comparable to current black-market
prices otherwise they wouldn't have much impact on current
procedures. == Alas, our planet is full of humans. I don't know
if such a thing is possible, except perhaps in small
communities. [the 150-or-less rule: anything over 150 ppl and
it's difficult to maintain a hierarchy-free subculture] ==
