(From the daily e-mail for The Scotsman.com, April 16, 2005)
An interesting side-effect of a chemical called lysergic acid diethylamide is discovered today in 1943 as Dr Albert Hoffman accidentally takes the first 'acid trip' after ingesting some synthesized 'LSD-25' through his fingertips. Initially used as an aid for treating mental disorders, LSD soon became a popular drug with hippies in the 60s and is still widely used - or abused - today.
Now that's a flashback.
