Thusly, also in said historical interest:::

LSD was discovered by Albert Hofmann at Sandoz Laboratories in 1938:
"In 1938, I produced the twenty-fifth substance in this series of lysergic
acid derivatives: lysergic acid diethylamide, abbreviated LSD-25
(Lyserg-saure-diathylamid) for laboratory usage."
[read all about it at http://www.lycaeum.org/books/books/my_problem_child/ ]

It may have been popularized by some acidhdeads at Berserkly, but it
got its first & far bigger boost by Dr. Tim Leary & Richard "Ram Dass" Alpert
at Harvard in early '60s. For the record, "free speech" was not invented at
Berkeley either, but it got a lot of [bad?] press via the FSM & Savio's
antics there.

Hey, not only did I live thru the '60s, I *still* remember a great deal of it!
