Further Rummy, drug war, etc.

Once upon a time I was reading the Whole Earth Catalog, and an Indira Incense Company in Texas offered a publication on the "Preparation of the Eucharist" it was titled, and on its cover, were drawn peyote mushrooms (or rotoscoped looking). In this slim magazine-size book, were the lab procedures, taken mostly from "Chemical Abstracts" then available on just about any college campus, listed with warnings, i.e., a seemingly harmless chemical, which however, if ever ordered will bring the DEA agents to one's abode quicker than the proverbial Dorothy gets to OZ. I'm not sure the point the incense company was making, many people don't know how it's made, perhaps once you see, in this case the chemistry, you'd be better off with incense. I still feel the former Chairman of NYU's Anthropology Dept, a Dr. Buttner-Janusch, may have been framed this way.
