Get high on sound
#1
I found this on Slashdot and remembered seeing something related to this on a special about StoneHedge. That Stonehedge amplified certain drum beats in certain spots. These same basic drum beats can be used to alter brainwaves.

Pretty cool. I wonder what the physical affects are when compared to say: lots of videogame play (dopemine) or caffine

I saw some local news parental hystaria warning about this too and laughed my ass off... Almost as funny as the Jenkem nonsense.

uh sorry your 1 unknown doctor doesnt contradict this phenomenon. The special I saw showed the brainwaves of test subjects being altered to match the rhythm of the drum beats.

Well, there's nothing like the report of someone who has tried it so, Diggles, try it out and tell us how it goes. Smile

That was just one example. I'm sorry I didn't live up to your standards of having at least 2 supporting links to the theory Smile

For the most part all the reports don't care about the actual sounds or anything. Even stating that the whole thing dates back to the 1800's so it's nothing new. They are all scared that these kids are being so easily scammed into spending money on something like this and what implications it has on them later with regards to actual drugs.

Retards paid for this? For christs sake kids, in high school acid was like $5 for an 8 hour trip, how much cheaper do you need.

I blame DARE.

They have pushed kids to abusing sound waves to get their fix. Imagine if they came up with lasers that made you trip out when shined in your eye. Mix that with the music and you could take out a whole rave in mins with an overdose.

EDIT: Oops, I left out my two supporting links.

I blame Scott Fant for not being available 24/7 to buy us beer and forcing us to revert to the more easily obtainable hard drugs.
