  • Psychedelic Resource List.Pdf
    A Note from the Author… The Psychedelic Resource List (PRL) was born in 1994 as a subscription-based newsletter. In 1996, everything that had previously been published, along with a bounty of new material, was updated and compiled into a book. From 1996 until 2004, several new editions of the book were produced. With each new version, a decrease in font size correlated to an increase in information. The task of revising the book grew continually larger. Two attempts to create an updated fifth edition both fizzled out. I finally accepted that keeping on top of all of the new books, businesses, and organizations, had become a more formidable challenge than I wished to take on. In any case, these days folks can find much of what they are looking for by simply using an Internet search engine. Even though much of the PRL is now extremely dated, it occurred to me that there are two reasons why making it available on the web might be of value. First, despite the fact that a good deal of the book’s content describes things that are no longer extant, certainly some of the content relates to writings that are still available and businesses or organizations that are still in operation. The opinions expressed regarding such literature and groups may remain helpful for those who are attempting to navigate the field for solid resources, or who need some guidance regarding what’s best to avoid. Second, the book acts as a snapshot of underground culture at a particular point in history. As such, it may be found to be an enjoyable glimpse of the psychedelic scene during the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Under aqueous and nonaqueous buffer condi- tions and based on the CZE and MEKC modes, the order of migration of (R)-MDA, (S)-MDA, (R)-MDMA, and the (S)-MDMA enantioisomers were determined. Several electrophoretic parameters, including the concentration of b-CD (aqueous, 25–60 mM; nonaqueous, 20–150 mM) used in the electrophoretic separation and the amount of organic solvents required for the separation, were optimized. Keywords: Aqueous and nonaqueous buffers; Capillary electrophoresis; Enantioseparation; 3,4- Methylenedioxymethamphetamine DOI 10.1002/elps.200410374 1 Introduction (2)-methamphetamine can also be extracted from a Vicks Inhaler [4] and that (2)-methamphetamine is used 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) was first in certain prescription drugs [5]. To avoid errors in judg- synthesized (1912) and patented (1914) by Merck Phar- ment, an enantiomeric analysis would be highly desir- maceuticals. The toxicity of MDMA was examined in able.
