Modern humans must learn how to relate to psychoactives
responsibly, treating them with respect and awareness,
working to minimize harms and maximize benefits, and
integrating use into a healthy, enjoyable, and productive life.
Erowid Announcement #83
Sep 24, 2007
Friends of Erowid,

As the summer winds to an end we're back in full swing here at Erowid
working on a selection of new articles and content as well as the next
issue of Erowid Extracts.

And as is normal for this time of year, Erowid funding is tight. Any
amount helps. Our crew depends on the support of visitors and members
to be able to continue researching, updating, expanding, and providing
information about psychoactives to the public...including you! Please
make a donation today. We need your help!

Erowid.org/donations/

We also now have glass Nitrous Oxide molecules available as membership
gifts for donations of $75 or more.

We welcome submissions, suggestions, criticisms, or corrections at
submissions@erowid.org.

peace,
fire & earth
