i remember a reporter in the 60's interviewed some hippies about smoking weed. They advised him that they cut their cannabis with cassia bark to make it go further. Cassia bark is way cheaper than marijuana and plentiful grown in just abut every garden.
The reporter tried it in the name of good reporting. The reporter did not know that Cassia is in the Senna family, but he certainly found out.

That was a pretty shitty thing to do. Gives new meaning to high on pot 😂

@TheoryNumber3 They may have been young but they did have a sense of humour.
although I was never one, I really miss them. They changed the world. Boy do we need a movement like the hippies that will change the destructive path the world is on now

@vocaloldfart I was lucky to be a part of that culture. My boyfriend and I actually "dropped out and tuned in". We quit our jobs and took off for europe for several months. It was an experience I'll never forget. Then we relocated to Berkeley CA, got jobs, bought a house, had a baby, and became "functioning members of society." Not all it's cracked up to be 🙂

@TheoryNumber3 They certainly change the world, but also set it on a path to destruction.. I believed and still believe in many of the hippie principles which are dear to me .
my humanity and as a healer being one. Even at such a young age (born 53), I could extrapolate the consequences of their policies.
I am truly at pains to admit that I was right at the time, I wish it could hasve turned out differently more according to the principles set by them.

@vocaloldfart yeah that damn Establishment. It does get in the way of people's happiness
