I think they are safer if you ride like you are crazy...

I see it all the time that the SUVs pick up the fight or harass the
minute they see you on "their" road. Well, sometimes they ignore you
and talk on the phone or pass you within inches, and that's another
problem.
I quote:
The ethnobotanist co-author of Psilocybin: The Magic Mushroom Grower's
Guide (not reviewed) puts forth the theory that magic mushrooms are
the original ``tree of knowledge'' and that the general lack of
psychedelic exploration is leading Western society toward eventual
collapse or destruction--controversial statements, to say the least,
though the argument's details often prove fascinating. In the
beginning, McKenna tells us, there were protohumans with small brains
and plenty of genetic competition, and what eventually separated the
men from the apes was an enthusiasm for the hallucinogenic mushrooms
that grew on the feces of local cattle. Claiming that psilocybin in
the hominid diet would have enhanced eyesight, sexual enjoyment, and
language ability and would have thereby placed the mushroom-eaters in
the front lines of genetic evolution--eventually leading to
hallucinogen-ingesting shamanistic societies, the ancient Minoan
culture, and some Amazonian tribes today--McKenna also asserts that
the same drugs are now outlawed in the US because of their corrosive
effect on our male-dominated, antispiritual society.

Having changed the banana for the mushroom wasn't the cause of
evolution. In fact we won't be fully human until we learn to smoke the
banana peels and stop driving SUVs. Those beasts are truly dangerous.
It's the learning curve that has many intimidated.

I don't think most American drivers would pass the IQ test given to
monkeys. Not necessarily but birth, but by dumbing down.
