I certainly did, thank you.  I am still trying to find time to go
through them all and get them on the BBS.  I have not seen Lantis
for a while but should have them sorted to pass on soon.

I was wondering if anyone in this echo knows much about the new herbal mixture 
being sold by Advanced Research in California which is supposed to be a 
natural substitute to MDMA. Has anyone tried it, know much about it and how 
it can be made or imported to Australia.
Thanks, 
  TD.
