Change in General
A bad day for Drug
Reform and Progressive Political Change in
General:
Well, I watched CNN for about an hour this mourning [sic], but no word
on the Nevada Marijuana Initiative (Proposition #9). After
searching for info on the net I found out that it, in fact, had failed
(see articles below).
Marijuana
Decriminalization Initiatives
By The Associated Press
Here are the latest, unofficial returns for ballot measures in several
states that would decriminalize possession of small amounts of
marijuana.
ARIZONA
100 percent
Yes, 415,225 - 43 percent
No, 554,123 - 57 percent
NEVADA
100 percent
Yes, 196,361 - 39 percent
No, 305,522 - 61 percent
So should we be smashing our glass pipes and throwing in the towel to
the plutocrats that now control BOTH Houses in our nation's capitol?
I think not. In fact this is probably the best time to get off
your butts to do something about it. Let me explain.
First of all lets get real. During the Clinton presidency the
Democrats became indistinguishable from the Republicans. We have
a one party political system in this country which is, and continues
to be, financed primarily by Multinational Corporations. These
Multinationals have about as much concern for the average working
American as they have for the increasing load of crap they shove down
our throats every day. This "crap" is organized and
then disseminated through CNN and other media networks which, by the
way, they happen to own.
But their time is coming. In the next 10 years, as Baby Boomers
begin to realize how badly they have really been screwed, by this
plutocracy, the tides will begin to change. No pensions, no
401K, no health care, no civil liberties . . . No amount
of media propaganda "crap" is going to convince the boomers
that "the recovery is just around the corner," once these
realities begin to materialize. Let's just hope enough of us
rise up before our First Amendment rights are completely stripped from
us.
Secondly let us consider the defeats in Nevada, Arizona and elsewhere
regarding drug reform initiatives. Despite the deep pockets of
people like Soros, Sperling and Lewis, we need to face the reality
that our government is wasting between 40-50 BILLION dollars every
year to make sure that Drug Reform never materializes. In doing
this they are protecting Prison Workers, Pharmaceutical Companies,
Drug Testing Labs and a huge cast of other "special interests"
who are dependent on the continuation of the Drug War paradigm.
Compare that to the 2-6 Million that these guys spend every year and
you begin to realize that this is NOT a level playing field.
The other week I was invited to debate with the Michigan Drug Czar
(Amyre Makupson's "Straight Talk" Channel 60/62 Detroit
Metro Region). The Drug Czar chickened out so they had me debate
2 prohibitionists instead AND gave the entire 1st segment to one of
the prohibitionists. Despite the unlevel playing field most of
those who watched felt I easily and handily
prevailed.
So am I happy? Not really. I have spent the last 15 years
of my life trying to educate the public about the pernicious nature of
drug prohibition. In the course of doing this I have lost jobs,
lost money and am definitely worse for the wear and tear. It
would not even surprise me if I am being blacklisted. I have not
been fully employed in over a year. But my requests for grants
from Soros, Lewis and Sperling continue to be denied. Meanwhile
the other prohibitionist, on the "Straight Talk" debate,
gets paid through my tax dollars to say uneducated things about Drug
Policy. That's because he is part of the "Macolm County
Anti-drug Coalition of Michigan" which is subsidized through your
federal and state tax dollars. Yep, his stupid, inaccurate
utterances are subsidized by our tax dollars. But how much does
the government give to people like myself, who feel it their civic
duty to protest against the numerous facets of international drug
policy. A big fat ZERO dollars! I am sure this is no big
surprise to anyone.
Well, enough about me. We have to get involved at EVERY level.
That means that the young voters have to hold their noses and vote at
every election. This alone may have changed the outcome in
Nevada and Arizona. It means that we have to publicly challenge
our policy makers at every opportunity until they stop speaking for
their Corporate constituency and begin to consider the damage they
have already dealt to average working Americans.
We also need to reflect on why other countries (e.g., England,
Switzerland, Amsterdam, Portugal, Spain, Canada) have superseded the
progress of Soros, Lewis and Sperling in bringing an end to Cannabis
Prohibition in particular and the Drug War in general. I believe
we have the potential to supersede the efforts of our fellow European
Drug Reform Activists. But to do this we need to get busy.
As Benjamin Franklin once said. "We can hang together, or
we will most certainly hang separately."
Please look at today's defeats as small battles within a much bigger
war. There is still time to win the war. And I doubt you
will be happy with the totalitarian reality that will ensue if we fail
at this task.

"What do you think?" I asked her.
"I think I've felt better."
"Can I do anything?"
"Nope. I'll get some pot and it'll be better."
We were on the wet street outside Memorial Sloan-Kettering where
she had just had a transfusion. She is Rosemary Dunne, a relative from
Connecticut, and she has been living on blood transfusions every two
weeks for several years. She has a low red count and nobody knows why.
That's all there is.
"I'm mad at myself," she said.
"Why?"
"Because I didn't bring it with me. I left it home."
We were looking for a cab. It's always a delicate scuffle. The
sidewalk is crowded, and most people are sick, and you never know how
sick the person trying for the cab with you is.
"I find it so offensive to prove that something works for me. A
lot of people do. And some don't. But patients who smoke pot to help
nausea can find the pot helps. Put me down. All I want is a couple of
puffs when I come out of here.
"I hate it when they use the word 'anecdotal' about this. That
was what this Barry McCaffrey said when he was running the drug
program in the White House. The most ridiculous man I've ever seen. He
said that feeling better from pot was 'anecdotal' and didn't count for
a scientific investigation. Was he saying this because drug companies
don't want patients turning to pot?"
"He was afraid that somebody with cancer smoking pot would get
addicted to it. Be a danger to society," I noted.
"I'm in a cancer hospital and they think I'm planning a
party.
"Now I know where to find pot, but why should I have to go and
hunt? What about all the people that don't? I do nothing illegal in my
life, except this. I buy the pot illegally.
"I'm afraid to travel with it, so sometimes like this I don't
have it. I just battle the nausea by lying in bed for five or six
hours. Nothing like what that methotrexate did to me. It made me throw
up 17 times between 11:30 at night and 9 in the morning. Half the time
I stayed on the bathroom floor to wait for the next time or I crawled
from the bed. The only thing that helped was a few puffs of pot and a
few sips of Coca-Cola."
"Can't they give you something upstairs?" I asked her.
"They gave me the latest and best prescription drugs, Compazine
and Zofran and they didn't work. In fact, Compazine made me sicker; I
don't know if I told you that. If I start getting queasy, I use a
combination of a tiny bit of pot and a little Coca-Cola. Don't give me
Pepsi or any other soda. My body only wants Coca-Cola.
"Some cancer patients respond to pot and are able to eat and
put on weight they need. Some patients aren't like that and don't
respond to pot. But how is that different from me not responding well
to the prescription drugs, and they are quite expensive. I know Zofran
was when it first came out."
We caught a cab, and what at least was irritation came out of her.
"I just can't believe that there is another side to using pot for
medicine. I have no respect for anybody who is against this. None.
They're so full of it. Let them have the experience themselves or
their wives or children and they'd be clamoring for pot.
"I can't listen to these people discussing it on television or in
some magazine. Because I'm bored with the topic and sick of it. I'm
too busy trying to stay healthy. Several serious doctors I've spoken
to recommend that I smoke pot when I need it. One doctor told me that
starting about a decade ago at UCLA, some doctors recommended pot and
took it from patients and put it in high powered microwaves before
giving it back to them so they could avoid the fungal infections from
the pot.
"I've talked to other patients who have had success with pot and
others who haven't. Some like it. Some don't. But that's the same as
it is with prescription drugs. Like anything - chemotherapy,
prescription drugs - some work on some people, others don't. Two
people with almost the same cancer at the same stage can respond
completely different to treatment. Why wouldn't patients' response to
pot be the same?"

Detox Doctors Ruled Not Negligent
By LINDA A. JOHNSON
.c The Associated Press
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - Two doctors who practiced a method of rapidly
detoxifying narcotics addicts were not negligent in the deaths of
seven patients, but their licenses should be briefly suspended, a
state judge has ruled.
Prosecutors had charged Drs. Lance Gooberman and his assistant, David
Bradway, with gross and repeated malpractice, negligence, incompetence
and professional misconduct. Prosecutors were seeking to revoke their
medical licenses.
The charges were filed after the deaths of seven of the more than
2,350 heroin and other addicts Gooberman and Bradway treated from May
1995 to September 1999 at U.S. Detox Inc. in Merchantville. The
doctors denied any wrongdoing.
After a lengthy trial, Administrative Law Judge Jeff S. Masin ruled
late Friday that the prosecution had not proved any serious charges,
saying the doctors generally acted in good faith.
He recommended that each have his license suspended for six months for
violations of several medical standards, followed by two years'
probation during which their records would be reviewed, particularly
if they resumed the rapid detoxification treatments.
The violations include inadequate record keeping, in some cases
encouraging some patients to allow their cases to be described in
publicity materials for the business and not telling early patients
that the procedure was considered experimental.
Gooberman said Monday he plans to challenge those findings.
``I'm really excited about the decision,'' he said. ``It vindicated
rapid detoxification. It was important for me to hear that we didn't
hurt anybody and we acted in good faith.''
The state attorney general's office is reviewing Masin's ruling to
determine whether to file any exceptions.
Masin also recommended that Gooberman pay a total of $11,500 in civil
penalties, Bradway pay a total of $14,000 in civil penalties, and they
together pay one-third of the costs for investigation of the case by
the state Board of Medical Examiners.
The board polices doctors licensed in the state and must review
Masin's ``initial judgment.'' It can accept his findings, reject them
or modify them.
In his ruling, Masin wrote that there was nothing intrinsically
``inappropriate or especially dangerous'' about the doctors' rapid
opiate detoxification procedure.
It uses medications to rapidly flush drugs out of addicts' bodies
while they are under anesthesia for about four hours, getting them
over the worst of withdrawal symptoms such as diarrhea, cramps and
tremors that normally would last for several days.
The method has been widely used in Europe and Israel, but is
relatively new in the United States. Doctors in six states offer the
treatment.
Gooberman and Bradway have been barred from performing the procedure
since September 1999.
The trial began in January 2001 and continued through June 2002.

Lance is
the one who made it highly popular, very profitable, and totally

Most of his former clients have expressed the general wish that it'd
be
karmically correct to get Lance strung out, and then repeatedly detox
him
using his own methodology.
I can't find any fault with that line of reasoning.

It is the nature of the beast to lie. This of course
CAN have an effect on the outcome of treatment. Eg, if
the patient is not close to withdrawal (just before
tx) because they used more/closer to treatment - and
of course during/just before can be dangerous. Not the
"fault" of the iboga, eh?

That happens with iboga, it is pretty common. With
other treatments almost always, once they start using,
they are back in the saddle/off to the races
(whatever), this is the case with iboga - eg, it is
one time, a couple times, reduced usage... Using does
not mean failure.

The ibogaine will out-last anti-emetics. If given
orally it would prove difficult to get more down them
(and keep it down) once they start getting sick.

Which is to say INDRA still kicks butt 17 years after
being made. I hear people put it down for that reason
(it is so old...), they simply don't know what they
are talking about. It does however seem more
unpredictable than HCL - which is itself,
unpredictable - the nature of... I myself have had
Indra from 2 different times, they were the same to
me. NOT that I am saying anything is "wrong" with
Ethnogardens extract.

It can often be "felt" for months, depending of course
on the patient and dose. FOR MYSELF, I find a little
higher dose lasts much longer and is stronger - I
"feel" it more with HCL than Indra (after the initial
shaking it off, Indra takes longer for that).

Andria responds:
Dear Marc,
Hattie, who is on this list, came to me sometime ago, asking about
counselling after-care for folks who had just detoxed.
Like any other ex-user, self-help, and/or therapy of some kind does
seem to be a good idea for most. This question led me to ask around
the drugs-field/U.K., on who would be willing to take this on; my
sense was that there would be a minority of
psychologists/counsellors who could/would.
Often, but not always, they were ex-users, whose minds were
open enough to listen to the Iboga experience without judgement, and
just get on with being a friend to folks, who needed to reconnect
to HUMANS as opposed to drugs. I hope this doesn't sound weird,
but according to psychoanalysts, addicts are a kinda-pervert(!) - gee,
i ain't had enough insults - who tend to attach to substances, rather
than people. Put simply, we get outta practise, and need to relearn
human-connectedness.
I wonder if setting up an post Iboga ex-user group, would be a
good idea for some?
In England, I'm increasingly meeting post-Ibogaine people, who ALSO
use general drug-services to stay off h & c, which i suspect is a
fairly healthy situation

For anyone not aware of ibogaine's current legal status in the UK, I
got
this back from a doctor at the Medicines Control Agency. Basically,
the
review in which iboga and/or ibogaine may be restricted is not yet
close to
completion, so its status remains unchanged for the time being.
The
substance is recognised as psychoactive and regulated under the
Medicines
Act, but it is not an offence to possess, as I understand the law.
This
applies to UK only.

////////////////////
1) After the treatment, my body seemed more fragile and vulnerable
than
usual. I've been more intensely aware of the traps and crystalizations
of the
discursive mind, how one leaks energy constantly. This realization has
made
me sensitive to socialized habits that feed negativity and threaten
the
awareness that 'everything is a dream', waking and sleeping. Old karma
has
manifested, old habits and addictions seem to be screaming for
attention. And
yet I'm half way into another kind of intention that leaves me in a
kind of
bardo stage of 'becoming'. It isn't particularly painful, as I
recognize that
state, but its disorienting, as if a few wires have been pulled and
placed
into sockets that I'm not particularly acquainted with.
2) I've felt the need to go on a semi-retreat, which is where I am
now, in a
cabin overlooking the sea in Nova Scotia. My work has been slow
(writing a
book) as the usual conceptual nature of this process seems
unavailable, as if
I'm waiting for a further level of consciousness to proceed. So I
wait. I
look at the sky. I drift. I sleep twelve hours a night and sometimes
take
naps. It's as if I'm in hibernation. Waiting to 'be'' rather than
constantly
'do'.
3) It would seem very beneficial if there was follow-up work to be
done after
this extraordinary session: grounding work, certain exercises or
meditations
that would allow one to contain and work with the released energy,
methods of
working with the emotional, spiritual and physical implications. All
the
subsequent addictions that are released in such a treatment create a
body of
fear and apprehension that seek to protect one from taking a further
step
into the realm or domain of freedom. How does one work with the fear
of
expansion, the fear of surrender, the fear of, ultimately, death? It's
step
by step, of course, but without being too formal and certainly not
instituional, it would seem important to have a way to continue; a
process
that would involve assimilation and faith. A proscribed ritual to
summon
grace and sanctify the circle.
4) Iboga was unlike anything I've ever taken before, which includes
San
Pedro, Peyote, Ayaquasca, LSD, mushrooms etc.. It contains a very
big
energizing motor, a relentless surge that seems to mirror the
maniacal
desperation of the cognitive mind. The result was a kind of initiation
into a
pre-cognitive state, a brief window into a sense of unity that
preceedes the
imprint of the ego, that shock that locks one into a cognitive
pattern, into
believing thoughts are real, separate from the essence of mind. The
ripples
of this insight continue. In a Buddhist sense, it afforded me a
lucid
appreciation of suffering, of where suffering comes from, how one
imparts it
and becomes inevitably addictive to it. The whole seductive dance
of
clinging, thinking, judging etc.. all the strategies of separation
and
dissonance.
5) The medicinal value seems to be one of releasing the nodules and
infinite
endless separations of one's energy flow that can, if not released,
become
the cause of sickness and degeneration. When the mind is exhausted or
even
for a moment relaxed, then healing can occur. Iboga stimulates this
process
of circulation. It seems to unhinge the grip of cogntion so that there
are
more gaps between words, more essential moments of silence, a
deeper
continuity away from those agreements that cause suffering.. it points
the
way towards the beginings of a field of grace, of the possibly of
nourishment
which can only occur when the internal dialogue is extinguished
or at least,
stilled. It seems very masculine, in a way, in its relentless process,
but
the result is quite feminine in the subsequent exhaustion of
thought. The
plant asks, even demands, that one surrender. I found the entire
process
extremely powerful and radical in ways that I am only now begining
to
appreciate.
6) I look forward to continuing this work which seems to call for
nothing
less than a revolution of the psyche. It seems to have the power to
push one
towards the 'drop edge of yonder', ready or not, without a parachute.
Love
and grace are its wings, its eyes are intention, it's heart the
womb.So
everything has the possibilty of becoming a vision or a dream, even
chopping
wood and carrying water. Because it is so powerful minimal teachings
and
explanations would seem neccessary, or at least practical suggestions:
a way
of relaxing the inevitable addictions of control, the waves of fear
that
overcome one when approaching 'that long passage that leads beyond
the
beyond''

de Rios MD, Grob CS, Baker JR.
Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behavior,
University of
Califomia, Irvine, USA.
This article examines drug substitution with regard to
hallucinogens
(ayahuasca, ibogaine, peyote and LSD) set within the concept of
redemption.
The model examines both religious and secular approaches to the
contemporary
use of hallucinogens in drug substitution, both by scientists and
in
religious settings worldwide. The redemptive model posits that the
proper use
of one psychoactive substance within a spiritual or clinical context
helps to
free an individual from the adverse effects of their addiction to
another
substance and thus restores them as functioning members of their
community or
group. Data is drawn from the U.S., Brazil, Peru, and West Africa.
Two
principle mechanisms for this are proposed: the psychological
mechanism of
suggestibility is examined in terms of the individual reaching
abstinence
goals from addictive substances such as alcohol and opiates.
Neurophysiological and neurochemical mechanisms to understand the
efficacy of
such substitution are highlighted from ongoing research on
hallucinogens.
Research by two of the authors with the Unaio do Vegetal (UDV) Church
in
Brazil is examined in terms of the model.

Please subscribe to new MMM email list. Public archive still
open.
The public MMM email list at Yahoo Groups now requires people to
subscribe
in order to post messages to the list and the public archive. For
a few
weeks I set it up so that non-members could also send in email
messages to
the list. That was to help people send in MMM rally reports. It
worked.
The archive also got some spam too. That was deleted. But people
should
keep sending in MMM-related stuff. Just subscribe first.
The MMM message archive itself is still public and accessible to
anybody:
