I don't know what it is about people dying and me becoming interested in them. I've seen Fear and Loathing before, but I may have to read the book now and watch it again. Maybe read some of his other works, as well, seeing as how that article called him "one of the most important US authors of the 20th century".



EDIT: I didn't know a lot about the story of F&L before...that it was based on his real life events...also this 'gonzo journalism' intrigues me as well...kinda wish I was more interested when he was alive

Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.
