I didn't say so much about myself above and I'll add a bit more. Actually, ranting about Zinc does say a bit about my chemistry attitudes. I'll also repeat that I am sincere in wanting to contribute somehow. How that can happen I don't know, but I am sure there's some magic stuff happening in this neighborhood. I'll just poke around a bit.

I've had a liking for psychedelics for longer than I haven't. I often think and talk about what attracts me to them but I'm not sure I can say exactly what it is. Words like, "Gaining a different and purer perspective on life" describe reasons, but it seems more complicated than that. It's hard to even speak about that world from this one. I've heard others lamenting their inability to take the psychedelic experience back for use in this realm. I think it's an important goal but it really is quite hard.

I'm not so comfortable describing specific psychedelic experiences. My recollections about specific experiences sound so trivial when I put them into words. In my own head I have vivid memories filled with fantastic imagery, trails, self similarity, recursion, moving patterns, music, emotions and journeys. I wish I knew how to communicate all that with justice. I think you know what I mean. You've got those thoughts as well. It's just that I can't describe 'it' in a useful way. We probably don't even have the right language to use. I will say one thing about me, I tend to be a very visual tripper and I feel lucky about that.

I have a little experience with ego death. That state that can be very unpleasant but I seriously cherish some of those 'lessons'. How could that be? There's lots to be learned in both realms. Perhaps the contrast between the two make each one more exciting?

I hope that gives you a better feel for who I am.

Sincerely, cker
