Preferred the one they used to show with the goat, until the touchy freely tree huggers stopped it being shown.

One company I worked at in the 1980's still had a kilo and a half of LSD in store, which dated back to the 1960's and allegedly had been made by Dr Hoffman himself. Quite possibly the source for the material used in those tests.
When it was purchased, possession was quite legal, but by the 1980's it had become illegal to possess, putting the company in quite a potential problem as the licences had expired........It was still there when I left, but understand it was later destroyed. We often used to speculate on potential value, and what "fun" could have been had with it
