I contributed much of the research toward the academic article Wasson and Allegro on the Tree of Knowledge as Amanita, 2006, with Michael Hoffman. This article is to be published in The Journal of Higher Criticism, sometime in 2008.
I was featured in the documentaries The American Drug War, aired on Showtime; and the recently released Canadian film, High Jacking Humanity.
