"But even if nothing lasts and everything is lost, there is still the intrinsic value of the moment. The present moment, ultimately, is more than enough, a gift of grace and unfathomable value, which our friend and lover death paints in stark relief."
-Rick Doblin, Ph.D. MAPS President, MAPS Bulletin Vol. XX, No. 1, pg. 2

Regardless of how people feel about him as an individual, and about the stories he has told over the years, the influence he has had on the community is undeniable, and I personally am glad there are people like him out there, spearheading the importance of fungi in the public's eye.

Good on him. Thumbs up

That is fantastic! And Well deserved. I hope many of his 'suppressed' technology is able to come out soon. The sooner the better. ;-)
Let us declare nature to be legitimate. All plants should be declared legal, and all animals for that matter. The notion of illegal plants and animals is obnoxious and ridiculous.

Thanks for posting this, Stamets and his books have certainly had influence on me for many years and it's great to see his relentless enthusiasm make waves in his lifetime.

Definitly he had some great influence , and i still consider his books a really good base for any grower

neverless, in my purest opinion, mushrooms should not be named after a dude... this is missing the point they trying to make, over and over and over , that IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU. OR ANYBODY.

Or maybe it's you who misses the point and take mushrooms naming issue too seriously? Smile

I think to think that the hat he wears is a big mushroom he found in the woods and dried.

Well that's just wonderful and thank you for confirming my imaginative suspicion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amadou

made from this mushroom: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fomes_fomentarius

It is cool, I mean I'm even a little envious of that hat. My favorite part is that this same mushroom was found on the ice man dated back 5,300 years: https://www.peninsulacla...-the-ice-man-and-amadou/

According to Stamets, the fungus can smolder / burn very slowly, so if a fire is started, one could light the Fomes Fomentarius and blow out flame and it's like a punk or incense and could be kept that way for a very long time to start your next fire.
