[QUOTE="Schwarzwald, post: 86652, member: 544"] [ATTACH type="full"]19119[/ATTACH] The book was written in 1971 There's a line where Thompson notes that pure acid or DMT had become almost as rare as Methedrine on the 1971 market He remarking that "consciousness expansion" had gone out with LBJ (goodreads) meaning DMT wasn't just known in 1971, it was already old news by then, already nostalgic for a prior countercultural peak that had passed. That's 55 years ago, not 20, and the framing is literally "this used to be a thing, now it's gone."

McKenna's The Invisible Landscape and DMT-focused ayahuasca discourse was well underway by the 70s-80s. Terence McKenna was doing university lecture circuits on it in the 80s 90s.
