Answer 1

Wrong answer! You should do a google search on stuff like this before you post things you don't know about. This is how rumors get started.

LSD was first synthesized on November 16, 1938[5] by Swiss chemist Dr. Albert Hofmann at the Sandoz Laboratories in Basel, Switzerland, as part of a large research program searching for medically useful ergot alkaloid derivatives. Ergot is a fungus that, by infecting cereals grains used for making rye breads, causes ergotism. After Dr. Hofmann succeeded in synthesizing ergobasine (which became the preeminent uterotonic), he began experiments with other molecules based around the central lysergic acid component shared by ergot alkalines. Lysergic acid diethylamide, the 25th lysergic acid derivative he synthesised (hence the name LSD-25) was developed initially as a probable analeptic, a circulatory and respiratory stimulant, based on its structural similarity to another known analeptic, nikethamide (nicotinic acid diethylamide). However, no extraordinary benefits of the compound were identified during animal tests (though laboratory notes briefly mention that the animals became "restless" under its effects), and its study was discontinued.[6] Its psychedelic properties were unknown until 5 years later, when Hofmann, acting on what he has called a "peculiar presentiment," returned to work on the chemical.[6] While re-synthesizing LSD-25 for further study, Hofmann became dizzy and was forced to stop work. In his journal, Hofmann wrote that after becoming dizzy he proceeded home and was affected by a "remarkable restlessness, combined with a slight dizziness". Hofmann stated that as he lay in his bed he sank into a not unpleasant "intoxicated like condition" which was characterized by an extremely stimulated imagination. He stated that he was in a dreamlike state, and with his eyes closed he could see uninterrupted streams of "fantastic pictures, extraordinary shapes with intense, kaleidoscopic play of colors." The condition lasted about two hours after which it faded away. Hofmann had attributed the psychoactive effects he experienced to accidentally absorbing a tiny amount of LSD-25 into his skin. Three days later he would take a much larger dose in order to test its effects further; this day would later be referred to as the "Bicycle Day".

Sandoz is the generics subsidiary of Novartis, a multinational pharmaceutical company. The company develops, manufactures and markets off-patent medicines as well as pharmaceutical and biotechnological active ingredients.

Answer 2

LSD was Introduced by Sandoz Laboratories as a drug with various psychiatric uses,
LSD quickly became a therapeutic agent that appeared to show great promise.
However, the extra-medicinal use of the drug in Western society during the mid-twentieth century led to a political firestorm that resulted in the banning of the substance for medicinal as well as recreational and spiritual uses.
Despite this, the drug is still considered in some intellectual circles to show a great deal of promise as a medicinal substance.
A number of organizations—including the Beckley Foundation, MAPS, Heffter Research Institute and the Albert Hofmann Foundation—exist to fund, encourage and coordinate research into its medicinal uses.

Answer 3

lsd acid realeased cia

Answer 4

And ecstasy was invented by the Germans in WWI to as pain relief for the injured as an alternative to morphine. (true)

Answer 5

It was developed by a swiss scientist called Albert Hofmann in the 30's. Nothing to do with the CIA. It was first used by pscyhiatric doctors to try and cure mental illnesses. That's a bit ironic as it actually fries your brains.

Answer 6

Truth serum, I beleive. And the reason "acid users" who end up with a "blown mind" is that they were probably not real honest or truthful people and to be forced by the drug to be honest and truthful could very well be more than their "circuits" could handle, dont you think?

Answer 7

Yes.

Mr. Leary,

And now we are watching you too. It's nice to see you are well and fine.

Sincerely,
J.E. Hoover


LET THE GAMES RESUME :)

Answer 8

CIA for me stands as Criminals in America. What else can you expect from criminals.

Answer 9

Don't tell me to not tell you you are wrong. You are wrong.
If this is true give us one piece of solid evidence.

Answer 10

sure, it was a test drug for the soldiers. They needed someone to test it on.
