Please note that these extended comments in Pihkal are not based on personal experience by Shulgin, but from letters he received from other persons. His approach to testing new substances has been a very careful (scientific) one - you will barely find any reports like this in Pihkal/Tihkal among his own comments

While some of the commentary is not from himself or Anne, some of it was.

I believe the quoted experience was not Alex Shulgin's though.

Ah, I had no idea - thanks for the correction.

Either way, it's a lovely passage.
