I was thinking more along the lines of meeting more than 1/2 hour
before the show.  For example, if semi-finals starts at 3 p.m., having
us meet at a common, well-defined spot at say noon and going out to get
lunch as a group.  Do people prefer to go before semis (which should
start at 3 p.m.)  or Finals (which should start around 6 p.m.).

Now *this* is the shocker of the night!   Readers of this newsgroup
know that I'm the biggest booster of the Glassmen on the net and
should remember that I was the first to say they'd make finals this
year.  Even so, I did not expect to see this.  Glassmen on a roll?
I should say so!
I am looking forward to seeing the Glassmen in Ypsilanti, where

Don't be a moron.  DMAE isn't a "food"--it's a chemical (and it amazes
me that it can stay on the market as a dietary supplement.)  Phenylalanine
in high doses behaves completely differently than when it's part of the
normal complement of amino acids in dietary protein.  Ditto for tyrosine
and tryptophan.

This distinction between "drugs" which are somehow "bad" and these
other compounds, which may be found in food at lower doses, is completely
artificial, and useless except as a propaganda putsch.

That's pretty infinitely open ended.  Try "Amino Acids Book" by Calson
Wades.  Costs $4.

My 2 cents of advise: take an amino acids complex with all the
essential ones.  A big supplement of one acid can flush out others
that you don't have a surplus of.

I'm going to assume misspellings on three of these, do you perhaps mean

	L-Phenylalanine
	choline
	inositol
	L-Tyrosine

None of these are, per say, "drugs" they all occur naturaly in the foods we
eat.  L-Phenylalanine and L-Tyrosine are amino acids both are involved in the
production of Dopamine and Norepinephrine,  two important neurotransmitters.  

Choline and Inositol are B vitamins, Choline along with another B vitamin, 
Pantothenic Acid (B-5), are involved with the production of acetylcholine, 
another important neurotransmitter.

I haven't encountered much information about Inositol other than it's a form 
of sugar and seems to act as a cofactor to other vitamins.

As allways, you and your friend should read the literature and get a good
understanding of what your dealing with before jumping into using any of 
this stuff.

BTW, is there a FAQ/bibliography for smart drugs yet?  We really need one!

I th}!ink it's important to emphasize to all the people posting requests
for information about "smart drugs" that there are two different
approaches to this study. Drugs work by strongarming various processes
within the body,and can have negative side effects....
Not recommended unless you are under a doctors care and are closely
monitoring all relevant bodily processes...or are clearly aware of any
risks...

Nutrients,like phenylalanine and choline are utilized by the body as
food..and are inherently safe...inherently nutritious...
Nutrients like DMAE also fall into this category.
THEY ARE NOT DRUGS!

I sometimes wonder if all of the "innocent" postings to this group
are all that they seem to be...if you know what I mean...
A FAQ for nootropics is definitely called for...
Good Luck!

Those hallucinogenic experiences seem identical to reports I've got from
users of MDA.  If you've got some evidence that MMDA tends to disrupt the
ego and drop psychological barriers then I'd agree it was probably more
LSD-like.  However, my impression of the drugs effect from what I've read

Therefore, it would seem to be somewhat MDA-like to me.

I have access to Capsules with the bark and also the "extract" that comes in the

My question is:  Are these products as useful as the raw product?


The FAQ suggests that the extract is not worthy of purchase... but I would like
to hear from someone who has used the other forms of the bark as far as

Steve, work your depression off on someone else.  Chris made a
valid and valuable distinction.  If you didn't blow off the
whole family of so-called smart drugs out of hand, you'd
realize that Chris is trying to distinguish between the
natural substances like choline and real drugs like Dilantin
that are touted by some as cognition enhancers.  

Any "food," any substance is potentialy deadly if consumed to
excess.  Hell, if I drank enough water I could blow my kidneys into
renal failure and die.  Somehow, I think I consider a natural
substance like water less dangerous than the artificial
medication I was given for a kidney infection.  Sure, isolated
and concentrated amino acids, etc. have the gross effects and
side effects of drugs, but at least they are naturally
occurring substances which the human body has been
metabolizing for eons.  Even well-tested drugs can't make that
claim.  Yes, (I can already hear the rebuttal) amino acids can
be proportionally more dangerous than artificial drugs.  I
could swallow a whole bottle of Valium and be in more danger
of choking on the bottle cap than working up an overdose,
whereas I'm well aware of the changes in my body chemistry
caused by even a moderate arginine/ornithine regimen, changes
that could easily be dangerous.  That doesn't detract from the
artificial/natural distinction Chris is making.  They're both
points to consider seriously.

You're right, he's right, but you always bring a load of
attitude that inappropriate.  Your pharmacological expertise
is obvious.  Your disdain is useless.  Please keep the former
coming and blow the latter out your ass.

Rohypnol (AKA "Rowies") is pretty hard to get these days. FOAF spent best
part of an evening driving between pharmacies trying to find one that would
fill a prescription. Very few doctors would prescribe it anyway, as the
pendulum seems to have swung to the other extreme (as compared to, say, five
years ago), and most doctors are opposed to the use of benzodiazepines.

Rohypnol *does* have quite a bit of recreational value. Just one tablet
(not sure how many mg) induces a very pleasant warm and woozy intoxication,
not unlike alcohol minus many of the negative sensations.

Even some normal medical centres have signs such as these. Rohypnol is probably
more recreational than, say, valium. A lot of publicity was given to "street
kids" addicted to Rohypnol (five years ago it was Serepax). I've been told
that people with a heroin addiction will take Rohypnol as a substitute if
needs be.
