Huxley's LSD Death Trip
I am not totally sure, but I think that was actually his first LSD experience (and obviously his last one). We don't really know how much he liked it. He did like mescaline though, and described his experiences with it in his book "Doors of Perception", from which Jim Morrison's band took its name. Also, that's 200 *micro* grams (μg)--"mikes" in the old lingo--not milligrams (mg), which is 1000x as much and would _really_ be something.

Octopussy
To me, the sight of the pure desolation of the place illustrates what an empty argument it is--real, exaggerated or otherwise. I mean, it doesn't even matter if it's literally true--to me, anybody who presents that argument is beneath contempt and impossible to take seriously about anything. Except, yeah, F*ing VP candidate!</rant>

Well, I cannot really say I enjoyed this. I mean, the mere thought of Palin possibly becoming the vp is more than any reasonably thinking person could take, isn't it? But I had been wondering (having access to maps, unlike Ms Palin and Miss Teen South Carolina) what she would actually be able to see "from her home", but was too lazy to dig into it. So, thanks for doing my research for me. Are you from Alaska or did you just happen to come across this vid or did you seriously do some research?

Thanks for posting this. I know it doesn't really matter, but I had been wondering what/how much/from where one would actually have a view of Russia from Alaska (realising one couldn't possibly see it from either Wasilla, Juneau or Anchorage).
