What? I thought it was Timothy Leary that invented Acid? Well, I will have to drink a beer in Doctor Hoffman's honor later today. Imagine that, he invented Cid, and then lives to 102.
Timothy Leary made it popular... Not only did he invent it... Hoffman used it frequently.... and lived to 102.
Leary just took it and ran around like a lunatic. Damned hippies and their Merry Pranksters... Little known fact: The guy who invented heroin is actually 135 years old and still alive...
He invited LSD. Lived to 102. Albert Hofmann, the father of the mind-altering drug LSD whose medical discovery inspired — and arguably corrupted — millions in the 1960s hippie generation, has died. He was 102. The Swiss chemist Hofmann died last night at his home in Burg im Leimental, said Doris Stuker, a municipal clerk in the village near Basel, Switzerland, where Hofmann moved following his retirement in 1971. http://www.northjersey.com/betterliving/celebrities/He_invited_LSD_Lived_to_102.html
