Alien TruckerAlbert Hoffman. Rest In Psychedelic Peace.
April 30th, 2008 by Rocky 
In 1938 one of the most important influences in my life was discovered by Sandoz Pharmaceutical’s chemist Alfred Hoffman. On April 16, 1943 Mr Hoffman accidentally absorbed some through handling it and took that famous bicycle ride. LSD was off to a good start.
I have enjoyed this wonderful concoction many times over the years. By encouraging free thought it shaped the future of an entire generation. It was a blast at parties and concerts too. Wow!
Albert Hoffman died today at 102 years old. Thanks Al.
Wonder if Albert imagined things like this when he was going home that wonderful night.
Stumble it!

not only did Dr Hoffman stumble apon an interesting alteration of antibiotics, he was also a strong worker towards peace and various civil liberties issues. while acid was his most published work, it was probably the least important of what he did… other than it made him a personality that would get press. psychadelics aside, the world is a sadder place without this humanist.
