> I think what is unfortunate is that by being illegal they are driven into being recreational.

I agree in sentiment, but would replace /recreational/ with /solely recreational and often consumed unsafely/. Recreation is an important part of life and there is nothing shameful about using these substances recreationally.

Fair enough. It's probably a poor distinction. It's not like we sit around singing hymns in robes... We certainly have a lot of fun and laughter, and that's a huge part of the experience.

To each his own, but for first-timers a more controlled environment might be best. I'm pretty introspective, so I like a environment where I can go deep with that. Too much chaos, or interruption would get in the way for me.
