A reasonable person would not be able to agree with your representation of his words: best for others to review the content for themselves. The idea that "all" encounters "are" this or that is plainly not what's being suggested. Rather, he suggests that the interested call his bluff by...

Thing is, if you were in the future and were to send back carefully-designed fungal spores via some hideously-expensive and limited time-travelling technology, designed to befuddle and side-track investigative research via psychedelic distractions, would you incorporate easily-distinguishable...

There are too many easily-Googleable triangular wind-tunnel designs, working drones, and proposed pilotless 60-odd-degree delta designs for the 'black triangle' not to be a garden-variety black project, in keeping with U2 and SR-71 tradition. The lenticular discs, however, are not so easily...

To deal with the original question, one would likely need to balance Lovecraft's (slavish?) devotion to Poe, with his apparent nightmare-affliction. The fact that - in his fiction - he posits a subterranean creature with the ability to 'send' to sleeping humans, and influence their behaviour...

Well, Mike, you've pinpointed the problem of scenario-building in the absence of the complete facts. Depending upon one's suppositions about the sophistication (and/or bloody-mindedness) of the various potential players, one can produce recursive loops which - more often than not - seem to...

Interesting response, Mike. I think the issue, if I understand correctly, is dosage and delivery, and the plant seems to matter. (I think he refers to several derivates from different plants.) McK talks about inhaling something, rather than eating/drinking. He seems to criticize the...

I'm sure you do. What's more, I'd certainly be interested to know what you - a pale, vaguely familiar-seeming superorganism of grayish, spongy cells - thought of the audio file. And if anyone else has some time to review it, I'd be equally fascinated. BTW, I should note that I'm not...

Thank you for the comment, Mike. By that term I suggest that Mr McKenna was following a somewhat scientific approach to his enquiries, but without the benefit of institutional structures or edifices. On the contrary, he operated as a kind of shaman, on the fringes of society. By virtue of...

In marked contrast to the consistently-evil alien sporespawn of H. P. Lovecraft's 'Fungi from Yuggoth', I wish to refer David B. (and any other interested party) to episode #150 of the strange-but-interesting Psychedelic Salon podcast, wherein hedge-scientist Terence McKenna can be heard...
