I wonder if one of the hidden stories of Prague Spring will ever see the light of day.  LSD research in the former Czechoslovakia was the state of the art, and civil use was widespread.  I wonder if Dr. Stanislov Grav will ever write his remembrances of those days.

Do you mean Stanislav Grof? who developed also the holotropic breathing? Well, that would be interesting and that is how got involved?!

Stanislav Grof - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Whoops, of course that's who i meant.  He's an intensely interesting man, with a lifetime of great work.  All based upon his earlier psychotropic experiments.

Was also referring to the stories we were told among the Leary circle that Dubcek was a head.
