It sucks. It doesn't make you hallucinate, and it for sure doesn't taste good. We were drinking the 60% and on one occasion I had the 80%. The reason why it doesn't work like it used to, is they took out a lot of the hallucinogen, because people were drinking so much that they would permanently hallucinate. Hence the huge ban on it :) 4671 Post 2008-06-29T00:00:50-04:00 122213 2477 2008-06-29T00:00:50-04:00 i saw an ad for this stuff in some magazine when i was at the dentist. then i googled it and read about it. and now i want to try it! lol. 4671 Post 2008-06-29T00:05:58-04:00 122216 5028 2008-06-29T00:05:58-04:00
