I have already emailed this article to several family members and those who roll their eyes when I bring up the psychedelic thing.

Thanks for posting :)

It's sad that I need articles from popular magazines to prove to people that we actually use this stuff and it works.

I'll third that, F*ck 'em!!!!

have begun a pilot study treating cluster headache patients with BOL (also know as 2-Bromo-LSD), a substance almost identical to LSD yet not psychedelic

Anyone have info on that?  Sources?  Dosage?

I have to say that that was well done!

Thanks kids.

I don't think any of that has been released yet. The initial study was done in Germany (our own Gizmo was part of it), and I believe Dr. Halpern is moving forward with a study here in the States, slated to begin early next year.

I forgot to add, Russ mentioned there is a section on page 2 to post your comments.  It might be good for us to post some of our thoughts.
Might be good for Russ also.

Thanks to everyone that took part. The author can only report the story he is presented with and he did a great job accurately depicting those that were in attendance as the good people that you are, and the worthwhile cause that brought you all together.

I would appreicate it if you all would consider leaving a comment on the Newsweek site. It will show this as a story that has enough interest that it may be worthy of a followup story. Speaking with the Newsweek editors, they are very interested in the storyline.
This coupled with our story that will be included in the National Geographic story in a couple weeks will give us some much needed momentum.

Thanks again to EVERYONE there that helped tell the story in a way that translated so well into the written story. Even if you weren't quoted, you made a good impression and were part of the story.

Bob
Proud of all of you  :)
