    The ordinary-ness of "Eileen"

    Mate you should pick up one of these: http://cgi.ebay.com/PROSTHETIC-LEG-WITH-LE...93%3A1|294%3A50 Wicked for standing on Get back to us if/when you manage to bioassay a piece of older plant material. I can't fault the content of the rest of your post(s) though mate, as individual propositions they are solid, but the quoted statement above prevents you from being able to justify with any sense of certainty your conclusion that Eileen is in an entheogenic sense a "fairly typical bridgesii". Many may disagree, but in my opinion there is more to the cactus experience experientially than simple mescaline content coupled with set and setting. The consumption of pachanoi, peruvianus or bridgesii is really rather different to that of straight sulfate or hydrochloride salt. There are clones out there that many people find consumption of markedly stronger and or more entheogenically significant than consumption of equal weight of that clones mescaline content alone. Bridgesii is commented on by many as being very different from pedro and peru and straight hydrochloride. Many people find some clones that have a unique spectrum of effects that appeals to them more than other clones/extracted substances. Eileen is a clone many people definitely seem to find this with. I'm working 60+ hours a week atm and really don't want to get into an argument about this, it's just a very subjective, scientifically legless opinion a few people hold with respect to trichs... Despite this I hope it helps a little to explain to you why some people feel Eileen is more than ordinary Nitrogen. Most definitely. Don't think you've met Ed. He is a genuine and generous person. He also has a chronic debilitating illness and just like the rest of us has to eat. Ed was initially very slow to praise Eileen, it's only after much positive feedback from others that he recapitulated their thoughts on it, in addition to noting its rot resistance and water tolerance (and it is the most rot resistant of the 10+ bridgesoid clones I've grown). Don't quietly paint a good fella as an underhanded hustling prick. It's offensive and unwarranted. For others reading I repeat: Ed is a genuine and good person. yes you have mate http://reshroomed.bigpondhosting.com/photo1.jpg http://reshroomed.bigpondhosting.com/photo2.jpg http://reshroomed.bigpondhosting.com/photo8.jpg http://reshroomed.bigpondhosting.com/photo12.jpg P.S. Real fucken sorry I didn't make it to the camping trip and haven't been at SAB at all PD, have been flat stick with work this past few months only able to get a week off for the whole year all up. All the best guys

    Cacti and Osmocote

    It's definitely safe to use with cacti. Native gardens and the pots and planters mix both work nicely in my experience I put it in all my cacti mixes at 70%ish of the recommended strength and give them half or third recommended strength doses of organic liquid ferts irregularly on top of them during their growth seasons. Never had any problems.

    It's a massive area, you will be totally fine. Go walking in natural areas with nice vibes a little off the beaten track and you should have nothing to worry about. Depressions in the forest floor, slopes and bottom of hills are nice places to stop for rests

    Acid techno

    Ahh sorry about that I read your post quickly and my mind must've filled in some non-existent gaps. The track they are mixing into in the clip is someone else's and thus isn't really reflective of their style, just the only clip of the pair of them I could find really. Motive just djs and hasn't released anything, so I wouldn't bother to seek him out personally. At the end of the day what constitutes good music is pretty damn subjective, if you don't find what your looking for next week Id say your intuition is definitely correct- your best bet is probably just to head to a couple of melbourne outdoors with a more alternative bent musically speaking (e.g. Submerge, Somatica, etc.) or winter warehouse parties. When you happen upon a track you like look at your watch (write down the time if you have to! ) walk up to who's spinning at the end of their set and just tell them what you said in your first post a little less forcefully as well as the time you heard the tune that did it for you and they'll rattle off a few names in a similar vein which you can pop in your phone and your off. The horse's mouth, however unreliable it may turn out to be, is always your best bet with stuff this specific IMO. Best of luck with it anyway, there are few things I hate more than having music fail to do it for me over an extended period.

    Acid techno

    Hey T attended the same party for its duration. The only duo to play were the Hayes brothers (Shadow Fx vs Tetrameth set) who were playing around ten o clock (as you stated). Motive played before them and dropped similar tunes in many ways). The former write and release as solo artists on Zenon records and often collaborate on tracks together (vid of the 2 of them mixing into a track of Ace Ventura's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HB6RwM0zqc ). Might be wrong but if your referring to the track i'm thinking of its unreleased at this point. If you wanted to pigeon hole it stylistically you'd call it Progressive Trance, colloquially classified specifically as the "Zenon sound". T, if you got excited when techno went minimal you should start looking for new music again- the massive resurgence of interest in minimal in countries like Germany in recent years has seen a lot of producers (psytrance included) picking the genre up and trying to make it their own- its great to see aspects of idm, psy/prog trance, glitch, tech and acid mingling and bleeding together in tracks and sets in such a way that the pigeonholes don't fit anymore. Melbourne is just beginning to catch on now to this and it will be great to see the acidy australianized outdoor incarnations engendered by this rapid crossbreeding when they eventually eventuate

    pass and jonos psy fishin adventure productions mark 1

    Cooling wise I've got a couple of 250 litre ice-boxes that could help us go the distance easy and some colorful solar powered fairy lights for those "wtf is the campsite?" moments. Probably have a spare dome tent or two as well provided we can fit them in the utility.
