    How Did THC End Up In A Colorado Town Water Supply?

    Turns out this was a false positive. http://www.denverpost.com/2016/07/23/hugo-water-safe-no-thc/ Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Hugo Colorado city hall.

    P. Viridis leaf curl

    I use a 50/50 mixture organic/inorganic soil. Organic components include potting soil that doesn't contain peat moss. Also added pine bark fines and coco coir are beneficial but not necessary. Inorganic components include perlite or a mixture of perlite and vermiculite. Worm castings and or time release product for fertilizer. The first photo is a 10 month old plant just up potted from a starter pot into a 3 liter container. The starter leaf is still attached. The second photo is 3 years old (my oldest) in an 11 liter container.

    Mandrake cultivation discussion

    I know little about this plant but those are some very healthy looking roots to me. Just to be safe, it might be a good idea to store them in a cool dry place until growing season. Is that what you're thinking?

    Define God

    Religion [God] is simply the word we use to describe our intuition that there is something outside the realm of culture and three dimensional surfaces of things; that there is a hidden dimension to reality -- call it a plan, a purpose, a loving God, a cosmos instead of a chaos. - T. McKenna [my substitution in brackets]

    I just can't get a grasp on this.

    Who is we? And where might I find those published things that you stand by, please. - Just trying to catch up.
  10. I was thinking about that possibility. I'm relatively new to cactus so maybe it's normal. Just want to speed things up a bit if possible. Gonna try the heat pad next. Thanks.

    Who's your messiah now?

    Very clear summation! The caller was ill prepared to state, much less, defend his position and expected Molyneux to be sympathetic and help him along. Molyneux it seemed was all to ready to take advantage of the situation and turned it into the equivalent of the proverbial wrestling match between a 500lb gorilla and a 50lb weakling. Unfortunately, in doing so, he had to recast the caller's incoherence into a drug induced brain damage caused confusion which I found to be unkind and reprehensible. In my opinion, the interview should not have been published as it is disrespectful to both the caller and the informed listener. The only value I see is that it serves as a warning to those who might consider a discussion with Molyneux: Be well prepared to defend your thoughts as you may be attacked for presenting them.

    The dream time.

    It is quite clear that, in this world, there are those that press toward total control and total enslavement of others through physical force. What may not be as evident, on the face of it, is that creativity tends to flourish in spaces less influenced by rule of physical force. If maximization of creativity is the goal, then the challenge is to create space that is unaffected by the rule of physical force. Please post your thoughts on the return of true creation.

    The dream time.

    This is the sun creation story I called a fabrication. More precedes but I think this preserves the essence: "A good spirit who lived in the sky saw how bright and beautiful the earth looked when lit up by this blaze. He thought it would be a good thing to make a fire every day, and from that time he has done so. All night he and his attendant spirits collect wood and heap it up. When the heap is nearly big enough they send out the morning star to warn those on earth that the fire will soon be lit." I think it is a charming story and I respect those that may be comforted by it. My intent is not to tear this belief apart but to understand. I see it as an initial attempt to explain natural phenomenon using familiar terms -- not unlike what anyone else does when trying to describe something unfamiliar. Where do I err?

    Lol! Yes, I suppose I haven't a clue. However, I'm intensely curious and I hesitate you ask you lots of questions to satisfy my curiosity. Can you post a link to something that a novice like me could read to gain a deeper understanding?

    Take 20mins of your life to watch this

    The war on conscious TED talk was the first I'd heard of Graham Hancock. Just listened to 725. Took me 4 sittings but worth it. Thanks for that! Both of you.

    The dream time.

    waterboy 2.0, I'm very interested in hearing more of the aboriginal Dreamtime perspective to learn exactly what sets it apart from other forms of dreaming. I'm convinced that there is something more to dreaming than what is commonly known or accepted. Something that awaits discovery. Some of the dream types I've experienced: 1. A predictive dream where I'm convinced that I saw a glimpse of a future event, that actually occurred at a later date. 2. Time travel - One where, as a child, I experienced a touring vehicle that was in the shape of what in this world is called a flying saucer. My dream mother held my hand as we embarked. When we got into the vehicle along with the other tourists, we were greeted by two pilots who were seated in the center of the craft. Lining the rim of the saucer were windows and under the windows were seats for the passengers. The tour we were taken on was a tour of the past. It was a time machine. 3. Multiple lives - I was aware that I had 5 separate personalities who appeared to be living and experiencing their own separate lives simultaneously. 4. The world I wake up into (the one where this message exists) is actually a dream world very confused and violent world. The world I wake up from is a world of ancient intelligent beings who spend their time with friends and family telling stories, learning new things and otherwise treating others with respect and respect of individual sovereignty. 5. Ordinary dreams where everyday events occur involving people familiar to me in my everyday life. I've dreamed all the above and more. Just wondering if aboriginal Dreamtime is something different that I have net ever thought of or dreamed of before.

    The dream time.

    Quite a bit of Dreamtime reading here: http://www.crystalinks.com/dreamtime.html Some like the creation of the sun appear to be complete fabrications and others, simplistic explanations of earthly experience. There is an undercurrent though of the unity of all life that is particularly interesting to me. still looking for more links
  20. Congratulations EG! Goal reached and 13 days to go. May your goal be far exceeded.

    I've just stumbled upon Graham Hancock videos and writings within the past few months. I find his thoughts very interesting and his historical research compelling. Thanks for the link.

    The dream time.

    Didn't know that the term Dreamtime had roots in aboriginal mythology. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamtime I am not conversant in the topic but the theme seems familiar. Would you care to open the discussion with some further comments? I have a few of my own but I'm interested in your perspective. Meanwhile, I'll look for other links that are a bit more enlightening on Dreamtime as the wickpedia article is fairly sparse.
