ACID THE ILLEGAL DRUG !!

Answer 1

LSD (or 'Acid') is a drug which comes in liquid form. In the 60's often carried in a small bottle with a dropper (like eye drops). A few drops would be enough to have you tripping merrily away. Often, (due to its bitter/chemical taste) users would let the doseage soak into a sugar cube and swallow that instead.

Similar reason for using sugar with absinthe.

Anyway, later on some clever clogs realised that one could use blotting paper (very absorbant paper) to soak up the liquid, and when dry it could be transported in large quantities easily and safely. When a piece of the treated paper was then put on the tongue, the chemical in the paper would enter the users body, and they'd start tripping in 30 mins or so.

This remained the popular method certainly up until the late 90s in the UK, although LSD usage has declined as a recreational drug, possibly due to the emergence of Ecstasy.

The 'acid tab' typically measured approx 7.5mm x 7.5mm (or approx 1/4" x 1/4 inch") which clearly meant that hundreds of doseages could be absorbed by one A4 sheet of blotting paper.

The paper would also often have little designs on each 'tab' to identify the nature of the high the user could expect.. so one design may signify a weak, or mellow high, another may completely blow your head off and leave you completely spazzed for the rest of your days.. Bit of a crapshoot. Note the classic scene in the Woodstock movie, where the organisers use the public address system to inform the thousands of kids there not to take the 'brown acid' because it was 'bad', meaning you'd have a bad trip and freak out..

Ah, the good old days eh?

nb - in case you were talking about Ecstasy, not acid, the pills would be round and about the same size as a headache tablet.

NB - Drugs are baaaad, m'kay?!
