Famous psychologist and psychedelic drug researcher and evangelist Timothy Leary led a crusade in the 60's to open the minds of America's youth with the humble assistance of LSD and other synthetic hallucinogens. His motives were pure and passionate and his methods were often described as extreme. Leary's efforts inspired a generation and his famous quote "Turn on, tune in, and drop out" became their mantra. Here are a few more bits of wisdom from the man that the baby boomers can thank for those exciting flashbacks that break up the monotony of the cubicle.

3. Great quote on the poster
but I'm still grossed out by Leary's movie that showed him dying and the tech sawing off his head to put it into cryonics. I have one thing to say to Mr. Leary, thanks a fuck of a lot for THAT visual!!! :puke:

4. I saw him in Seattle at a computer exhibition, circa 1983-4
He was really into computers, right from the beginning of the PC revolution.
