You know, when you think about it, not a whole hell of a lot has changed in the past 30 years, with the exception of these here gadgets we're typing to each other on..

Yeah they still use pseudo-science and scare tactics.  You'd think people wouldn't go for it anymore, but it seems like it still works.  I read somewhere recently that a lot of the "Ecstasy causes brain damage" research was not just flawed but fraudulent--I'll try to find a link.  Also, I read that a psychiatrist in South Carolina will be using MDMA in a study to determine its effectiveness in treating females with PTSD.

Tell us more about the "flip-out" room, RTP. I used to go into one of those...we'd rock out to black sabbath. It was cool as SHIT!  :rofl:

It was basically a cot-sized room in his closet that he had covered in aluminum foil and I think posters of rock bands.  He would smoke grass, take pills, start up the strobelight and rock out to some 70s UFO-type druggie gutar rock.  Freakout rooms like that were essential for white suburban pothead teenage guys in the late 70s- early 80s, and there is probably some variant with black lights and techno being used by kids today.

Don't remember the death of Rithie.

Sounds like a fucked up story straight out of the teen help industry, modern day.

Exactly. A druggie friend of mine (druggie friend, LMFAO) used to have this little crawlspace type place off of his room. "white suburban pothead teenage guys in the late 70s" yeah, that was him...He lived out to the north of Baltimore. I'd go out there to visit and we'd get stoned out of our gourds and walk around in the woods around his house (his family had $$) or go in the "freak out room" or whatever. We both played guitar.

Like I said, we were some cool-ass dudes.  ::nod:: :lol:

I know that story has been posted before, but I never read it.  What a fucking monster.  Maybe I should print it out and send it to my dad.  Sad, sad story...sadder still is that 'the program' most likely blamed his suicide on drug use.

and after his tragic suicide while discussing the program with his mom, his mom was still an avid supporter and said the program "was a godsend". I wonder if his brains were still on the wall when she made that statement.

Yep, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
