Dr. Albert Hofmann, Father of LSD, Dead at 102 Printer Friendly Version Email this Article Posted in Chronicle Blog by Scott Morgan on Tue, 04/29/2008 - 4:48pm Internet rumors of his passing have been confirmed for us by a friend of Dr. Hofmann's. Dr. Albert Hofmann died of a heart attack this morning at his home in Basel, Switzerland. Hofmann inadvertently discovered the effects of LSD while researching the substance in 1943. He subsequently self-administered the drug deliberately and produced the first accounts of its powerful psychedelic effects. If you think 102 is old, just imagine how long he might have lived if he never did drugs! Update: The above line is sarcasm. Before posting it, I asked a couple smart people if they thought anyone might misunderstand and we decided it probably wouldn't be a problem. Well, it was, and a few commenters have come away with the incorrect impression that I think Dr. Hofmann would be better off if he never used drugs. This comment explains what I really meant. I won't stop cracking jokes in the blog, but I do apologize for this one. взято отсюда http://stopthedrugwar.org/speakeasy_main/2008/apr/29/dr_albert_hofmann_father_of_lsd_
