Default National Geographic - Inside LSD

Not sure how many psychonauts there are in this forum, but..

There was a show on National Geographic on Nov 3rd, called "Explorer - Inside LSD". I was wondering if anyone watched it. There was also a show on marijuana, and one on meth before this. All hour long shows. Some torrent sites have it, if you're interested.

National Geographic did a decent job in keeping it unbiased. The main focus for the "Inside LSD" one was whether or not it had any medicinal value or not. The government is just now, again, letting scientists study it's effects.

The coolest thing was it's testing with people with cluster headaches. Scientists were using 2-bromo-LSD, a non-psychedelic derivative of LSD, on people with the headaches. National Geographic used 8 people for their example, and 7 out of the 8 were cluster headache free, after taking 2-bromo-LSD. They currently don't know how it works.

To say it doesn't have any medicinal value is ridiculous. Even straight LSD, it's psychedelic effects alone are medicinal. I don't care how thin the line between what is medicine and what isn't.
