Hi, all. I'm new here at the nexus, but not so new to psychedelia. I've got about 15 years of experience in all, 10 with respect to spice in particular. My past resume includes a pretty wide diversity of opiates, stimulants(tropane,amphetamine,and phenethylamine derivatives), benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, disassociatives(N2O and arylcyclohexamine derivatives), phenethylamines(RC's, unfortunately no real mesc...yet, Oh how I look forward to that day...), tryptamines, and the occasional ergoline compounds. Enough to know what I like and what I need to stay away from(everything but the cacti, cannabi, tryptami, and an occasional ergoli). I can thank the medicinal properties of tryptamines(DMT and psilocybes) for my path to sobriety from all the evil drugs(I mentioned all those above). I look forward to being able to help anyone else with addiction problems, like I had.
I have experience with several extraction and purification techniques involving spice, harmalan alkaloids and cannabinoids and look forward to the continual progression of my skills. I also have extensive experience with psilocybes and the fun of the sterile process that rides along.
In the real world, I hold a degree in biology and have done work for a few large pharma/industrial chemical producers doing analytical and in-process testing of chemicals and pharmaceutical compounds. I'm very familiar with my way around the lab, reading scientific literature, and writing technical reports. I just wish the legal system was as agreeable to the sharing of information and research that most of the scientific community revolves around. Unfortunately, if they can't tax it, we can't have it... I do digress.
The nexus, as I lovingly refer to it, has been a great resource for education and will forever be grateful to everyone in this community. I look forward to sharing what I've learned and to keep learning from those who have come before.
That is all for now.
