Huxley Footnote

Aldous Huxley is the author of the famous composition The Doors of Perception. In this work Huxley describes the use and effects of Mescalin. Mescalin is found in a peyote which is a small "spineless catus." It was main used for tribal rites in Mexican tribes. http://www.streetdrugs.org/mescaline.htm. The mescalin in these peyotes cause hallucinations when consumed. Even though Huxley might have been seen as a stoner he famousily suggested that everyone should once in a while take a "chemical vacation." To this statement i agree, everyone once in a while just need to get away from all the stress and drama with life and so this so called "chemical vacation" may a great way.
