The 20th century mind is nostalgic for the paradise that once existed on the mushroom dotted plains of Africa where the plant-human symbiosis occurred that pulled us out of the animal body and into the tool-using, culture-making, imagination-exploring creature that we are. And why does this matter? It matters because it shows that the way out is back and that the future is a forward escape into the past.

this terrence Mckenna seems cooler than i thought it was.
yeah, well... we cannot go back... so... what are you gonna do?
nesse caso, tens mesmo que desenhar um bacalhau.
bacalhau! bacalhau! bacalhau!
i don't agree with simon, the mushroom is everpowerfull, therefore it has in itself the hability to bend (and blend) the borders of the past and present.
simon's opinion doesn't matter :)
watch your mouth kid...
