Cocaine is a crystalline tropane alkaloid, which comes from the leaves of the coca plant. The possession and distribution of this class A drug is for illegal purposes and is in demand all over the world, so much so that there is cocaine being illegally smuggled with great effort to different countries without suspicions of police or authorities. Those caught with the drug are often disciplined greatly by years of imprisonment, however, there is still mounds and mounds of coke being illegally distributed, unnoticed every single day.

Another little blog of what I’ve been up to interspersed with a few links. As per usual, I hope you can find something to your liking among them.

Since my second edition I’ve been busy trying to work, sort out my garden and get the odd article up and running.

Film-maker Chris Everard, who produces documentaries for the Enigma Channel about conspiracy theories, alternative history and the paranormal, has a new book out entitled Stoneage Psychedelia. In it he presents some very challenging theories and argues that the major religions of the world were inspired by the use of hallucinogenic plants and fungi. He describes evidence for this from the Bible and how the Ancient Egyptians used a mind-altering water lily and other drugs such as cocaine and tobacco.
