Can Mushrooms Treat Depression?
Looks like it. The Imperial College London, in a study gave patients psilocybin, a hallucinogenic chemical found in the mushrooms. Dr. Cahart-Harris of the study said a "majority of the patients had a rapid dip in their depressive signs, including predictable side effects like nausea, anxiety and headaches.” Looks like the mushroom's psilocybin targets the brain's receptors, which usually responds to the hormone serotonin, that is involved in mood. -Thom (What do you think?

Hour One: More Issues Presented at DNC Last Night Than All of Last Week at the RNC!!
Article: " Bail" by Wikipedia.
Quote: " When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man's moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?" - Mark Twain.
