I would like to hear a little about the bwiti use of ibogaine. I
know almost nothing about it. Like why do these people use it and how
often and under what sorts of circumstances? If anyone has anything to
share I would love to hear it or links to where I can read a little more
about it.
Also, I was curious about the info about the CIA using ibogaine in
the 50's in Lexington Kentucky at the treatment hospital. I have read a
little about the hospital/prison but I have never heard any mention of
ibogaine in relation to it. Where did you come by that info Howard and
how credible is it? If it's true it pisses me off immensely.
