![]() Sort of like finding the holy grail for this blog! But why did the builders get in touch with you? Have you at some point contacted the current owner regarding any buried artifacts that might be discovered? Just curious. Brown goes on to describe "several pint-size vials" of the contraband gracing the bookshelves of the sunroom in Lennon's Kenwood estate. According to Brown, liquid LSD was somehow placed in airtight camera lenses and shipped back to England. The film crew were just a smokescreen to justify the real purpose of the trip - to cop a large supply of Owsley's renowned LSD. Exclusive film rights had however already been sold to another party. The alleged plot was that the Fabs sent over a film crew with camera equipment to San Francisco in 67, ostensibly to film the Monterey Pop festival. Reply Deleteįascinating! In the Beatles bio "The Love You Make" by Peter Brown (and Steven Gaines), I was struck by the extraordinary allegation made in the book regarding the Owsley acid. This might prove to be negative, given the evidence for LSD degredation as I have stated. I guess we will never know if the bottle contained LSD unless the interior surface is tested for traces of Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD 25). Distilled water is the least likely to contain chlorine, but alcohol (of the highest proof available) will cause the least amount of degredation. ![]() ![]() Almost all tap water, and even some bottled water will contain some chlorine. John's swimming pool in the near vicinity has not helped this either. Second, LSD is destroyed on contact with chlorine. There are two reasons for this.LSD degrades in the presence of oxygen, and generally speaking, most water is going to contain enough oxygen to cause noticeable degredation. While it will dissolve just fine in water, it will also degrade relatively quickly unless the water is ultra-pure. For longer term storage, liquid LSD is generally made by dissolving LSD in alcohol. LSD can definitely be stored in solution as Elise suggests. Apparently Cynthia's mother found the buried LSD and flushed it down the toilet? Who knows, all we know now is that a bottle has been dug up from the garden at Kenwood, and it appears to have been buried there on purpose. He later tried to find the buried LSD but could not remember exactly where it was. At one stage,under the influence of transcendental meditation, Lennon renounced drugs, he claimed he was Jesus Christ and buried a huge quantity of LSD, which had been obtained at the Monterey Pop Festival from infamous LSD producer Augustus Stanley Owsley III by representatives of The Beatles, in the grounds, presumably the garden at Kenwood. John Lennon's drug intake was large, particularly LSD and hashish. Offensive comments/advertising/trolling/other moronicisms are not welcome, and will be rejected.
