I will be there. If anyone else is going to be there hit me up via pm.
Psychedelic Science in the 21st Century April 15-18, 2010 in the San Francisco Bay Area
Psychedelic Science will offer opportunities for national and international experts to present on psychedelic research and psychedelic psychotherapy topics for the largest conference dedicated solely to psychedelics in the U.S. in 17 years. Three full days of programming will be offered with concurrent tracks exploring clinical applications, issues relevant to healthcare professionals, and social and cultural issues surrounding the therapeutic and spiritual uses of psychedelics. The conference is open to the general public. CME credits are available for medical doctors and ancillary medical professionals.
There will be a special benefit dinner on the evening of Saturday April 17 to raise funds for the conference, with guests of honor Ann and Alexander “Sasha” Shulgin, whose lifetime of achievements are inspiring. As a pharmacologist and chemist Sasha discovered numerous new psychoactive chemicals and authored the legendary books TIHKAL and PIHKAL, and hundreds of other scientific papers. Ann and Sasha are legendary for bringing rational and scientific perspectives to self-experimentation and psychoactive ingestion.
The benefit will cost $60 to attend and is not covered by the cost of the hotel room. Tickets may be purchased for the benefit dinner beginning in mid-October on the MAPS webstore.

I find that with these kinds of things once you buy the ticket to the event itself it forces you to get your act together to put the trip together. I bought the tickets today to the full conference AND the Shulgin benefit dinner. I can't wait to go. I will be sure to share some pictures afterward. I'm going to take a copy of tihkal to see if i can meet the shulgins and the erowids and get it signed. Next up, a flight! Then i need to find someone to stay with. If anyone lives in the bay area let me know. I'll probably rent a car out there too. I've never been to SF. I think my first stop will be stanford then SF. What else is there to do up there?

I will add that since your payment will go toward maps, a 501c3 org, it's a tax deductible purchase.

One more week!!!!!!! I can't wait! I am going to look at this as mainly a way to meet a ton of people who share our interest in a passionate way. I got a new flash for my camera a couple weeks ago. I should be able to get a ton of good pics to share. I'll post that in tsl or the dome probably. I think i will also keep a diary of each days events.
