| I thought about micro dosing just to try it but I feel taking so little of it will be a waste of time. The whole point is that they supposed to be mind altering after all. I was thinking of a small dose just to see if it might be worth actually going through the effort of hunting for a bigger trip.... |

| Under communism, everyone in Russia was guaranteed a decent life, but didn't get it. Under their current system of mafia capitalism, no one is really guaranteed anything. Right now in Russia, there is a movement to restore the glory of the old days, even if it was not so glorious. But many of those ... |

| Not sure that 'speciation' is a good idea - it probably involves a genetic bottleneck and amplification of undesirable traits. I will settle for greater awareness, understanding, and acceptance. |

| Interested. I think Russia will brutally pursue their own "self-interest." It could boil over into something global, but probably not, IMO. The people of Ukraine will pay a heavy price, the rest of the world will see higher energy prices and think they are the greatest victims. Not sure if... |
