Albert Hoffman, the Swiss chemist who first synthesized and experimented with lysergic acid diethylamide, died today at age 102.

Well, poop!
Here I always thought it was the Beatles and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds!
The Swiss got their nose in everything!
102? Dang! Maybe he was on to something.
Damn. I was just reading about him last weekend as I was getting off the pain killers from my first accident 2.5 years ago, thinking couldn't they make non-addictive pain killers. Well, we still have Sacha Shulgin to carry the "better living through chemistry" torch.
