Sasha Shulgin, so called 'godfather of ecstasy' has died. RIP Sasha. http://rt.com/usa/163300-pharmacologist-alexander-shulgin-died/
Comfort to Ann. Thank you, Sasha, for being the light, diligent chemist, and lightning rod for all you did. I'm not remembering which book, Pihkal or Tihkal, but in his rating system there was a hilarious, and therefore memorable comment about vehicle use on chemicals, and he pointed out a bicycle is a vehicle. Then he went on to tell a story where he cycled under influence.
he will be remembered. although i don't remember that bicycling part in PiHKAL or TiHKAL, but it's been awhile since i read them. i've sampled some of Shulgin's inventions more recently than i've read those books.
