Well known English writer Aldous Huxley (from 1894 to 1963) did not think twice about sharing his thoughts and practices with the world.1 Throughout his life he tended to be drawn towards "chemical vacations" (occasional usage of drugs to get away from reality). On one occasion he experimented with a drug by the name of mescaline. Mescaline is a psychedelic drug typically found in cacti. During 1896 this psychedelic was extracted and used.2
