Dear Dana,

20 odd years ago, when I was with you, camped out in Lafayette Park, if you
had told me that the work that you were doing then was going to result in
your being written up in JAMA, I would have asked for another hit of
whatever it was that was being passed around.

: )

Congratulations.

This must be very gratifying for you.

In my last letter I left out an idea I have towards an act of Civil
Disobedience this coming April 20th, a Sunday.

The phrase 420 has caught on in cannabis cuulture as shorthand for cannabis,
as you well know.

A friend told me that on 4/20 of this coming year, he is going to appear at
the Mall in DC at or around 4:20 in the afternoon to represent a friend of
his who is in jail on a 420 related charge.

He's not going to protest, he's not going to speak, he's not going to bring
anything, save for 2 forms of ID.

Just show up, think of his friend, and go home.

I have a friend who is also in jail, so i am going to join this person, and
I have spoken with a few friends that won't be able to travel that far, but
they are  going to show up at either their local jail, or City Hall and do
the same thing.

Wouldn't it be great if one person per prisoner shows up to do the same
thing, either locally, or in DC?

Might make a great visual on the Evening News that night.

Do you know anyone that might be interested in passing this idea along?

rhetorical question.

again, many congratulations on the JAMA piece, looks like the work you have
been doing these many years will pay off and a lot of sick, addicted people
will finally get the help they need.

That's simply amazing and i'm glad to say I know you.

best regards,

nic adams

PS: The 'Roger Kaputnik' nom de plume was a joke btwn my g/f and me, last
letter should have gone out under my real name, which this is.

POLICE POUR COLD WATER OVER MP'S 'POTSHOT' AT TANCZOS

First-term MP Craig McNair's "potshot" at Nandor Tanczos has failed after
the police decided not to prosecute the Green MP for using cannabis.

They said yesterday that their review of the New Zealand First MP's
complaint found that "no criminal offending could be established to the
requisite standard on the evidence presently available".

They had interviewed Mr Tanczos, who uses cannabis as part of his
Rastafarian religion.

He had been co-operative and stood by his public statements admitting he
used the drug.

But he had refused to answer questions about his personal cannabis use, and
police said that without specific information they could not prove an offence.

"Publicly stating that you intend using cannabis in the future is not an
offence," said Detective Inspector Harry Quinn.

Mr McNair said he was disappointed at the outcome and denied that his
complaint had been a political stunt.

FRANCE TO TOUGHEN LAWS ON CANNABIS

France is planning to tighten restrictions on the smoking of cannabis in an
attempt to curb its steadily rising popularity.

Campaigners claim that millions of people are regularly defying existing
laws as more plantations of cannabis are discovered, particularly in the
south of the country.

At normal levels of consumption, up to three million French people will
have smoked the drug on Christmas day.

France's hardline interior minister, Nicholas Sarkozy, has been consulting
cabinet members and government officials on raising the maximum penalties
for cannabis use, from the present level of a year in prison or a UKP5,000
fine.

This month the government made it an offence to drive under the drug's
influence after a series of fatal road accidents.

The interior ministry's anti-drugs chief, Michel Bouchet, has also been
asked to investigate the cultivation of cannabis after police reported that
more than 40,000 plants were pulled out in raids last year, compared to
1,500 10 years ago.

But the pro-cannabis Collectif d'information et de recherche cannibiques,
Circ, claimed that there was not a village south of the Loire valley
without a plantation. In addition, hundreds of thousands of plants were
grown indoors.

The fashion for home-grown cannabis was linked to two DIY books, Fumee
clandestine (secret smoke) and Culture en placard (cupboard growing) which
have sold 100,000 copies between them.

Drugs squad detectives admit to being overwhelmed, during this month's Hemp
Salon in central Paris.

The event was backed by Circ's founder, Jean-Pierre Galland, who campaigns
through the Green party for the legalisation of the drug. He has had to pay
about UKP30,000 in fines for his lobbying activities in its favour.

Police visited the salon but there were no arrests despite the sale of
gadgets such as the Pollinator which can be used to make hashish.

Visitors were given catalogues by Sensi Seedbank, Holland's main producer,
but many amateur growers depend on cannabis seeds sold to feed racing
pigeons, which, according to one advertisement, "was like putting a
turbo-engine into a sparrow".

Other catalogues offered bat manure, considered as the best fertiliser for
growing the seven-leaved plant.

"The great problem is not police raids but theft," a grower from the Var said.

"You'll find small fields hidden in pine forests. Once they have been
located, they have to be guarded night and day. A good crop earns enough to
keep you all year round, even though it is sold only to friends."

So far, no action has been taken against shops selling specialised
equipment, of which there are about 50 in France.

But a decision will have to be taken soon on whether to stop the annual
summer festival at Montjean-sur-Loire where cannabis, described as "the
symbol of the Loire valley", is easily available.

"It's only a matter of time before pot overtakes tobacco," a festival
organiser said.

"There are already nearly half as many pot smokers as tobacco smokers. Some
of our visitors say that cannabis saved their life."

FOUR ARRESTS IN RAIDS ON CANNABIS CAFES

Police have arrested four people in a crackdown on Amsterdam-style
cannabis cafes.

Scotland Yard made the arrests at two cafes in Camden, north London,
after keeping them under surveillance for nearly two months. Police
said the cafes, Amsterdam of London and Ian's Hemp Bar, sold legal
paraphernalia associated with cannabis but officers suspected drug
dealers were operating at both. About 25 officers raided the cafes and
seized 14 wraps of marijuana, two marijuana grinders and a small
amount of cannabis resin from Amsterdam of London. Two men, aged 29
and 38, and a 21-year-old woman were arrested.

However, the cafe was still open for business yesterday, and a member
of staff described it as a "head/smart" shop, which sold "smart
products" that gave legal highs.

At Ian's Hemp bar, a 31-year-old man was arrested for possession of
cannabis. During the raid, a samurai sword and lock-knife were seized.

Police hope the raids, on Tuesday, will counter impressions that their
policy towards drug dealers has been relaxed in the wake of government
plans to reclassify cannabis. From July next year, cannabis will be a
class C, rather than class B drug, and police will no longer have
automatic powers to arrest people for possession.

DRINKERS FACE DRUG TEST AS THEY ENTER THE PUB

Pub and club revellers face a drugs test as soon as they enter the
premises. Anyone going into a bar, whether they arouse suspicion or
not, will be asked to take a swab test, which highlights any drug use.

The scheme is being run by police in south Staffordshire and will
initially cover the towns of Cannock and Stafford.

Police have warned that anyone refusing will automatically arouse
suspicion and have told establishments that do not co-operate that it
will be held against them when their licences come up for renewal.

MAN FIGHTS LAW TO HELP AILING WIFE

For at least 15 years now I've watched Jim Miller of Toms River and his
wife Cheryl fight for medicine she says relieves some of the symptoms of
multiple sclerosis.

You are not a criminal, Mr. Miller, you are an outlaw, and there is a big
difference.

One breaks the law out of greed, and the other does it out of necessity or
a belief in what should be right.

I've watched you push your wife to the nation's capital in a wheelchair,

COURT RULING PROMPTS POT-DELIVERY SERVICE

Medical Marijuana Club Activists Launch Order-By-Web Site After Judge In
Quebec Stays Possession And Trafficking Charges

MONTREAL -- Pot in Canada may soon be a click away with the launch of a
home-delivery service for medical marijuana over the Internet.

Marijuana activists in Montreal announced the start-up of
http://www.marijuanahomedelivery.ca shortly after a Quebec judge threw out
possession and trafficking charges yesterday against two volunteers at a
medical marijuana club.

Quebec Court Judge Gilles Cadieux said authorizing those who are ill to use
marijuana in Canada while depriving them of a legal source violates the
right to life and liberty under the Charter.

CLUB'S POT TOO PRICEY, CRITICS SAY

Internet Sales Not Seen As Panacea Muscular Dystrophy Patient Says Many Who
Need Drug Are On Welfare, Fixed Incomes To Enrich Dope Peddlers, Not Help
Sufferers

Claude Messier applauded the new Web site launched by the Marijuana Party
of Canada yesterday to sell pot over the Internet. But, he admitted, it
will do little to answer the problem of accessibility for those in need of
medicinal marijuana.

Messier, 36, is a muscular dystrophy patient who lives in constant pain. He
smokes on average about 3 grams of pot a day - roughly $800 worth a month.

While Messier, who was a defence witness at the drug-trafficking trial of
Marc St-Maurice and Alexandre Neron, was happy for the two, he said it's
still up to the government to come up with a feasible plan to distribute
marijuana.

STATE POLICE SUED FOR DRUG SEARCH

Barbour Sheriff's Dept. Also Sued For Stopping 2 Men On Way To Pot Rally

The American Civil Liberties Union sued the State Police and Barbour County
Sheriff's Department on Thursday for establishing a drug checkpoint last
year near a rally organized by marijuana-law reform advocates.

ACLU attorneys Allan Karlin and Jason Huber filed the lawsuit on behalf of
Thomas Thacker and Brett Gasper. The men said police violated their
constitutional rights in July 2001 when they stopped and searched them for
drugs on the way to a Barbour County event held by the National
Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, or NORML.

Police violated Thacker and Gasper's rights to assemble and to due process
of law when they used specially trained dogs to search them without their
consent and without lawful justification on their way to the political
rally, according to the lawsuit.

ANOTHER DRUG WAR

Loretta Nall could have done a lot of things when the helicopters started
to target her. She could have gotten scared. She could have moved to
another house or into an apartment. She could have just tried to ignore
them and prayed that they'd go away.

Instead, when police helicopters began hovering over her rural Tallapoosa
County home, whipping the trees with high-speed winds and deafening her
with thunderous noise, she got organized. "I think they were looking for
marijuana, but I don't know why they thought that I was growing it," she
said. "I wasn't."

On Sept. 19, the cat and mouse games with the drug helicopters came to a head.

"They came over and were just sitting over my house and it was so loud. So
I went outside with my video camera and pointed it up at them. That must
have set them off, because within minutes, there were seven different law
enforcement agencies on my front lawn," she said.

MOST PARTY-GOERS REJECT RACINE PLEA DEAL

Young People Ticketed at Rave Have Stuck to Not-Guilty Pleas

Racine - Rave Wars, which began when police issued $968 citations to
each of 441 party-goers in November, may continue here for quite some
time.

The city has backed off since socking the ravers with the big-dollar
tickets, offering to reduce the fine to $100, change the violation to
disorderly conduct and offering to expunge the record of any reference
to the original citation: "inmate of a disorderly house/controlled
substances."

But even with the new offer, a heavy majority of young adults at the
first round of pretrial hearings Wednesday stuck to their not-guilty
pleas for attending the rave, a type of party known for distinctive
dance music and, oftentimes, illegal drug use.

PRO-MARIJUANA DRIVE GATHERS 2,600 NAMES

Petition seeks leniency for small amounts.

University of Missouri-Columbia students seeking to decriminalize small
amounts of marijuana through an initiative petition effort have turned in
more than 2,600 signatures, more than double the amount needed to place the
measure on the April ballot.

The students, who call themselves the Columbia Alliance for Patients and
Education, have been collecting signatures for the past six months. Their
petition urges the Columbia City Council to pass an ordinance that would
direct all people charged with possessing 35 grams of marijuana or less to
municipal court.

The petition also calls for limiting punishment for possession to small
fines and asks city prosecutors to dismiss charges against people who use
marijuana for medicinal purposes under the direction of a doctor.

KIDS AT RISK WITH FEDERAL DRUG POLICIES: DE JONG

Abbotsford kids are being put at risk by federal government drug policies,
says a newly-elected school trustee.

But the man who ran for mayor of Abbotsford under a pro-marijuana banner
vows to fight any limits on pot possession, and said he will run against
Langley-Abbotsford (Canadian Alliance MP) Randy White in the next federal
election.

Uultsje De Jong is both an Abbotsford school trustee and chairman of the
Abbotsford Coalition for Crime Prevention and Drug Treatment. Last
December, he was among those making presentations to the Special
Parliamentary Committee on the Non-Medical Use of Drugs.

A total of 40 recommendations arise from the committee's report, unveiled
at Vancouver's Roundhouse Centre earlier this week. It's now up to the
federal government to decide whether to implement all or some of the
recommendations.

Do you mean to say that in this imperfect world that
those folks being treated for their addiction (with
ibogaine) outside of licensed/bonified/glorified/FDA
approved medical care should not be having such
treatment? 

Can you show any studies showing that ibogaine
treatment under "medical supervision" actually is more
effective than non-medical treatment? Can you show any
studies proving it is safer under medical supervision
vs not under supervision IF someone follows protocol -
cause we all know ibogaine can be dangerous (as with
any medication including aspirin) if improperly taken.

Can you show any studies showing that drug treatment
by drug treatment professionals is actually
better/less dangerous than any form of non-medical
treatment.

Can you show any studies showing that the medical
community has the vaguest clue what they are doing
when it comes to treating addicts? In my experience
they (medical community as a whole) flail around
blindly trying to "fix us", control us, make money off
of us and seem to do more damage than anything else.
Can you dispute this observation mine?

Perhaps you will share your experiences treating these
complications as it relates to the detoxification with
ibogaine. This is NOT to say that I believe that
treatment by non-medical professionals should ignore
medical conditions if they arise and get them medical
treatment where necessary.

> During the initial phase of a detoxification with

Again, perhaps you will share your experience with
non-medical treatment providers so that they can have
a better understanding of what to do or when to bring
the patient to a doctor? Yes, I know - always check
with your physician, lawyer and clergy before doing
anything in life... is that it?


> Regarding the comment made by Curtis I feel that it
> is arrogant and ignorant

> competent.

And it is arrogant and ignorant (and a few other
things) to assume that all people belonging to "YOUR
CLUB" are competent.

Here is a good one from 60 minutes last knight. There
are counterfeit drugs that the drug companies,
doctors, pharmacies... are not required to tell
patients or even report to the FDA (or any other
government - yeah right - agency) of said drugs. This
is not just that they could be BOGUS, that they could
be dangerous in and of themselves. That is OK? When
you guys (the medical community) put patients first,
above profits, above ratting out your friend in your
club - then speak to me. It was pathetic watching last
night, people paying tens of thousands of dollars for
medication that is killing them and no-one is required
(even if they knew) to tell the patient or announce it
to the customer base - it is BAD for business to
announce to the world that SOMEONE may be
counterfeiting your medication. This is just one tiny
example of what a crock of shit the medical community
is - that we are safe in your hands. This is NOT to
say that there isn't fine treatment out there and fine
doctors (just like there are fine/safe ibo-treatment
providers) - there are, and then there are those... Or
you could talk about the "doctors" who were found out
to be unqualified but slipped through the cracks and
were swept under the table - still unqualified...
happens all the time.

> Dr. Mash might claim that other treatment providers
> have no idea of what
> they are doing and she is entitled to her opinion

And there are things MASH has very little
understanding of. There is nothing that can take the
place of a few decades "out there" (using) or what it
is like to actually go through ibogaine treatment -
there is NO WAY to communicate it or understand it
like someone who actually did it. So, the flip side of
the coin is you lose some "understanding" by having
non-ibo-initiated/non-addiction-recovered doctors
treating you vs an ibogaine guide - there are always
trade-offs.

And maybe she doesn't have any special magic? Show me
where it says her version of ibo treatment is better
than anyone elses - in other words the results are all
over the place, with hers orelse'sne elses? YES, there
are some (by doctors even - and I will NOT comment on
someone specifically) treatments that are poorly done
and others that are somewhat better. for instance,
Sara's method of using Indra extract for methadone
patients does seem to make it less of a problem than
other types of treatment using ibogaine HCL. Which
also brings me to a point that MD's don't like to take
advice from non-MD's, cause we don't know shit and you
know everything - or so it seems. When YOU (the
medical community) are more teachable and listen to us
(addicts) you will be more effective.

And by the way, how were you going to get ibo
treatment to addicts who are "out there" and cannot
afford several thousand (or more) dollars and fly to a
limited number of locations (outside the US). Also,
how do you get ibo treatment to someone on
parole/probation in the US who cannot travel outside
of the county they live in much less leave the
country?

Brett Calabrese Addict/Ret./Happy

One last thing. Perhaps you would be willing to
provide your services/experience to ibogaine "guides".
Maybe review medical tests/protocol for them or be "on
call" in case they have any problems that arrise
during treatment. Or maybe you would like to help
set-up ibogaine clinics outside the US, I have an idea
for the Bahamas since it is so close to FL and a very
large "recovery" area in Dade/Broward and Palm Beach
counties.

Curtis, no problem apology accepted.
Brett, I did not mean that people should not be having this treatment or administering it, I just think that it is advantageous to do it under medical supervision.
If the guide is experienced, follows protocol and screens the patient then the treatment can be given safely.
I am willing to share our experience in treating patients with ibogaine and we are open to learn from other treatment providers.
What makes you think that we have not taken ibogaine? I believe that it is essential to know what patients are going through.
If it was not for a treatment provider that is not licensed/sanctified/glorified/FDA approved, a close family member would still be using drugs and we would have never started giving treatments.
We do not have the resources to do the research that Dr. Mash has already done and I was not making negative comments, I was just stating the facts.
In science it is customary to share information to move the whole field forward and to give other scientists a solid footing from which to do more research.
Word through the grapevine says that she is closing St. Kitts but opening another treatment center elsewhere in the Caribbean so Healing Visions is not closing but relocating.

Me too, or rather I would say there are advantages. I
guess what I hear sometimes is MINE IS BETTER THAN
YOURS - or even DON'T DO YOURS CAUSE I AM THE ONLY ONE
QUALIFIED. I don't hear, THESE ARE THE
CHOICES/OPTIONS/COSTS..., TRADE-OFFS, PRO's, CON'S,
now go make an informed decision on YOUR treatment
(screwed up in the head as addicts are, it is still
their decision). One thing I tell people is to get a
once over by a doctor, heart checked, liver, blood
chemistry... before taking ibo. This eliminates much
of those nasty un-diagnosed problems you mentioned.

Absolutely - in relative safty anyway. That said there
is always a trade-off, ie, does someone who don't know
squat do the ibo treatment themselves if it is the
only way to freedom??? I know I would and I know
people who have done just that - successfully. I would
rather see the entire worlds addicts with ibogaine
(not under medical supervision) than what we have - I
think we will come out far ahead even with the risks
and no doubt fatalities involved.

Tell me about it (you are correct). If there is ever a
drug/medication doctors should take before giving it
to patients, ibogaine is it - IMO of course. Of course
there are a bunch of folks I would love to dose with
the stuff (and a few other things), would do em good.

I did ibogaine after I'd already been clean for over a year. I did not "need" to do it to detox and I wasn't even looking for it, I was connecting to phantom.com which now points to mindvox and I ended up on this list reading all of this.

I would never have had the money to afford St. Kitts and I would never have spent the money to do ibogaine with medical supervision for $3,000 and up. I got ibogaine from a person I met on this list and received a lot of really great advice both on and off the list, before I took it. I would say doing ibogaine was one of the greatest experiences of my life and I am very grateful that I found it, this list, all of you. Before ibogaine I was clean but I was so down in the dumps about everything and I would not at all say I was happy or enjoying life. About 6 months later I don't know exactly what I would say has changed, but I have changed or been changed, for the better, in all kinds of ways that I can't always describe.

I don't think there is any lack of doctors who used to be drug addicts, almost every doc I ever saw when I was going from treatment pimp to detox when I had a habit and a lot of insurance, were all former addicts. I don't think there are many md's who deal with addiction and stick with it, who are not prior addicts. One reason being that addicts aren't going to listen much to someone who hasn't been there and the other being I think it's frustrating to work with addicts if you don't understand what they're going through.

I would also have to say I feel the same about ibogaine. If my liver was shot and I was on a lot of different drugs, then I would want a doc there who knew what he was doing. In any other situation I would want someone who was a addict and then got out of it all with ibogaine, because that's the person I want to talk to and hear advice from. Someone who has done it and been there. The best of both worlds would of course be having the md there and someone else who understands what I'm dealing with from having been there.

I wanted to lay to rest anything I may have started, the SF conference for the parts I caught was very good, Beal, Kroupa and Mash make a good combo and present all of ibogaine from all the different sides. Dana was on target and did not start the PKD material, Kroupa and Mash both do total theater in different ways, they're fun to watch :-) Yippie/hippie/cannabis/PKD freak, hacker/hardcore junkie/entheogen-proponent/genius-weirdo who now does neuroscience. and neuroscientist/genius-weirdo/entheogen proponent ;-) Pass the popcorn! The three of you should go tour talk shows. Cable talk shows, or ones with a time delay that bleep Patrick when he says "fuck" ;-)

After that it went on a little bit too long and not to disrespect anyone who promotes cannabis, I am pro cannabis too! :-) I just didn't understand why more then half of the conference had to be taken up with people who either knew nothing about ibogaine or addiction, or spent 5 minutes on it before going off about pot for an hour.

I don't claim to know what Mash is doing, but if st. kitts is just moving, that's the opposite of what she said, she said healing visions is being closed and that she is not doing ibogaine treatments anymore. I guess time will tell.

Peace out and happy holidays,

Thanks. I ran into Bernie after not seeing him for several months last week, and he was talking about how much sucess his girl had w/ ibogaine. He said he could get me some info if I let him go online; it took me a minute to figure out why I was getting emails from people I had never heard from, people who seemed to belong to some community that talks ibogaine. Finally I was like, oh , he put me on a list...so I guess I'm part of a kind of email forum? I am familiar with the forums where you go to a website and read entries on a given subject by those who post, but I have never done it like this. If you could explain a little about how it works to me, that would be great (do i just hit "reply" and then the message is sent to others on that thread with my new comment attatched or what?).
   I am absolutely committed to getting and staying off of opiates. This is not a new struggle, although it is certainly shorter than the road to wellness for many. I first did heroin 5 years ago, at age 20; first began randomly abusing opiates (no real preference for opiates at first; I was happy with anything that could take away the reality/ realities--or my lack of skills to deal with my reality--- that had led to a suicide attempt a year or so earlier. Until the precipitating events to the suicide, I was considered healthy, athletic,introspective (and extroverted), eclectic, creative/artistic, intelligent (straight A student; went to UNC Chapel Hill on a Creative Writing Scholarship), and independant student who was bound for greatness. Never in a million years would anyone at my high school have guessed I'd become a junkie.
  I have realized that I do not have the time or the presence of mind to tell you my story in the way I would like to. So I will give you this cliffs notes version, and fill in the balnks later. Meanwhile, I want all of the ibo info I can get, and I would like you to examine my credibility as a ibo patient based on these experiences. One thing: I am really scared to trip, because I am scared I'll lose it because of all the shit I have been thru since I last had a hallucinogenic experience, while I was still engaged. Is it scary?

The Cheat Sheet to Tb's Life
-Physically/mentally /sexually abusive childhood; victim of my stepfather, as is my mother
-used school/intellect/imagination to eascape abiove situation; decided I couldn't be Mom if I was fiercely independant and became a overly educated, overly wealthy grown up.
-Age 13: Moved in with my wealthy and far saner father and stepmother after escaping a beating. Began to pretend that my prior family and mother didn't exist
-high school: light experimentaation with pot and alcohol only. dedicated student, but lonely. Very few boyfriends in contrast to the in crowd I was brought up w/ after age 13. I wore black and pretended that I was alone by choice, building up a false sense of superiority because I was smarter than these girls. they talked hairdos, i talked herman hesse.  Became one of the guys, which was easy since they already called to talk to me about deeper things than their debutantes could grasp, and sometimes hung out with me to do the things their gfriends didn't, like smoke, or have an intelligent discussion. Of course, I truly felt left out, ugly, and was forever obsessed w/ a male friend. The people who saw past my tough feminist facade to see the roots of this defense mechanism always said "you'll meet a guy at Chapel Hill." Apparently, b/c Chapel Hill is liberalish, "people like me" were there. They were right.
-Met my fiancee at 18 at UNC. First love. All consuming. I love my current man whom I have dated for a year, but I do nt think I wil ever be as fulfilled by anyone as I was with Greg when things were good.
-Fiancee introduces me to some of his illicit study aids, which cause me to lose 55 pounds in 2 years: went from 135 to 80-855 (I'm 5'0"). I decide I have to quit or die, and decide to take a semester off and tell my parents. Greg thought that as long as you were academically/ professionally successful, then drugs were not hurting you. I had a 3.7, better than him, and he used that along w/ other things to say I had abandoned him (I moved 30 minutes away, and we were engaged-had a family planned, etc) and basically pushed him to cheat on me. When that relationship ended, I died. Every second of every day, once I got out of bed, was devoted to altering my consciousness, whether at work or play, to dull the pain. I was so codependant and in love, it was like I'd lost a limb.
That was the beginning of the rapid downfall, which I will describe later. I have been free of street opiates of all kinds for 3 years, but I am on a very high dose of methadone. If heroin is hell, methadone is purgatory: the lesser of 2 evils, but a big evil. I am tired of feeling like a robot. Everyone I have seen attempt a detox has been sick for so long that they eventually had to go back to methadone or heroin so that they could go to work, care for their kids, etc, and of course, stop the sickness. These have ranged from 30 day to 6 month or longer detoxes. Why does this happen?
I have so much more to tell you, but not now. BTW, I always enjoy your seed offerings in counterculture magazines. Kudos to you.

What's in "this issue" of Heroin Times, is sumthin' I wrote 'bout 2 years
ago; he is simply recycling my material.  A lot of that particular space
in time, is just me working out my shit and venting, to sum it up, "HA!
Fuck all of you stupid fucking pieces of shit who ripped me off, handed me
lead weights while I was drowning and attempted to inflict psychological
damages on me while I was in an extremely vulnerable state.  Who's still
standing is me, and who has gone down in fucking flames are 95% of the
weak-willed idiots who ever got in my face with their bullshit." 

In short, it's an emotional response that represents my feelings about
being subjected to "drug treatment" and the comedy routine known as rehab.
But that was a while ago, and it's kinda like, okay, the sun rose in the
east today, and the 12 steps still suck, so what else is new.
 
The 12 steps are sumthin' to do -- other than drugs.  They're extremely
old eastern concepts for dismantling ego, rewritten and dumbed-down for
drug dependent individuals who are acclimated to western culture.
Somewhere along the way, all of that turned into the Cult of Eternal
Powerlessness where you can sit and spin, complain about shit for all
eternity, and shine up the altar you've built to your idealized former
self.

An organized alternative to the 12-steps, which many people on this list
seem to find useful is SMART.  I've never done it personally, but reading
through their spin control, I haven't found much I disagree with.

Uhm, I dunno their URL offhand, Randy does I'm sure. 

| In JAMA article you are quoted as saying that on
| ibogaine you "went to hell and got killed 1000 times"
| which is same as you said at talk when you did
| ibogaines to detox from drugs, but at your talk you

| like you would not do ibogaine again, you said you
| will do ibogaine again at talk. You also said ibogaine
| very mild, not near as strong as LSD.

Yeah I did, it wasn't much fun, but it certainly didn't deter me from
doing ibogaine again.  Ibogaine isn't a very strong "hallucinogen" it's
equivalent to no more than roughly 300-500mcg of LSD.  If the visions are
distressing, then just open your eyes, they will recede. 

This is both good and bad.  What it amounts to is walking into the lobby
where a movie is playing, you can go sit in the movie, or if you don't
like it, you can wander back out and land right on, "fuck this, it didn't
work, I knew it wouldn't, nothing ever does, where's my dealer at..."
Ibogaine isn't strong enough to FORCE you to confront anything, you can
avoid it.  On 3-5mg+ of LSD you really, REALLY do not have that option.
Whether you decide you want it or not at that point, you're going.

On the flipside, LSD ain't gonna do nothin' 'bout your habit.

| Thanks for talk and your time, for me you made it much
| eaisier to understand difference between ultra rapid
| and other detox and what ibogaine feel like, but you
| confuse me with 12 step and if you like ibogaine or

I like ibogaine, the 12-steps are something that works out for some
people, and does damage to many more who are subjected to this bullshit as
the "only answer," to drug dependence, and confuse their failure to get in
tune with this cult, as having anything whatsoever to do with stepping out
of drug dependence.

What that means: if you actually WANT to get off drugs, and the 12-steps
don't work out for you, it does not mean you're damned, not ready, or
hopeless; it just means maybe you should find something else to do.

Ummmm, Patrick that is not fair. While I agree that
ibogaine is not as psychadelic as LSD you are
comparing normal ibogaine doses with super-normal LSD
doses - not regular LSD doses. Maybe you should do
40-50mg I.P. or 100mg/KG orally - what is that about
10gm or so of HCL for you orally??? which are also
more in-line with ritual dosages of ibogaine. Then
maybe you will find ibogaine to be "strong"... They
don't use the term "crack the skull" for nothing (lol)

From: Jesse Silverman <atariuser_420@...>
Subject: Problems and Inconsistencies...
To: dana@...
Status:  

Dana:

(1) send the JAMA article here...and anything else
VERY IMPORTANT...

(2) Napa is DEFINITELY ON and wants to get the
leaflets as soon as possible with them on it!  He also
should get some Ibogaine info, he is interested...

Bruce Trask, (707) 253-9295
1020 Soscol Ferry Road,
Napa, CA 94558
he will have an e-mail for contact soon...

(3)
All we have is a dead or misspelled e-mail address for
Charlotte, NC- OnThatLevel@... name "Ragan
Tolbert" (spelling?)  I can find nothing for this...

Buffalo--neither of two spellings of the e-mail
contact work, left message on answering machine of
Phil Beavers...

Daingerfield - e-mail address rollinxoxo@...
bounces, apparently isn't good at all anymore...we
have a snail-mail address for "Johnny S. Chambliss"
only...

Germany - there are a few inconsistencies between our
printed material and cannabislegal.de:
http://www.cannabislegal.de/aktionen/mmm2003.htm

(1) phone number and e-mail for Bremen:
our 160 cities leaflet says "party@...,
0162-3399334 which is the number for Party-Project)
our contact list says the same as the cannabislegal.de
website.  Hopefully both are good.

(2) Soltau - cannabislegal.de agrees with our mailing
list which is NOT what is on our leaflet: number
should be 05191-975296, spelling should be
vandreike@... (misspelled on our leaflet)

(3) Leipzig - I believe the contact should be
parade@...

Marburg isn't listed on our leaflet--is that
intentional?

(4) Cannabislegal.de has:
N¸rnberg
Kontakt: <emanuel@...> Tel. 0911-535433,
http://www.gj-bayern.de
NOT what we have on the leaflet.

(5) Munich/M¸nchen is listed on their site but isn't
on our leaflet--noone volunteered a phone number yet?

dana--as we both mention below, there is no www. at
the beginning of:

otherwise, please read.  I talked to RJ, in 10 minutes
over there he should have usable graphics of a
reasonable size from what you guys had produced.

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:
