High Times is reporting the father of LSD passed away at 102. http://hightimes.com/news/ht_admin/4240

He and his happy little molecule changed the world.

I often have the pleasure of looking at the original of this during my yoga class, so I thought it was pertinent to display here.

From what I read the last few years, he was doing fine in his very old age. Being busy meditating, going for a walk in those nice swiss hills, taking part in conventions.

Usually, I don´t feel sad when a famous person dies. I think, he handled his surprising discovery quite well and in the end, the world was a bit better for it.

Thank you, Albert Hofmann.

Well, his discovery was definitely one of the defining characteristics of how I spent the nineties... cheers, Hoff! They were some good times.

Seconded with pleasure. May the sun never set on his wonderful accidental discovery. Truly one of the makers of the modern world.
