Been doing research on lsd purity and came across this. It is Erowid's view on lsd purity, going against the "lsd bible" (The bible states that lsd purity has nothing to do with the overall experience, or feel to the trip.)
I thought this was an awsome metaphore describeing the difference between high quality acid and "regular" acid.
It also states that many older cats think acid is acid because this was so in the 60's but by the mid 70's acid quality declined.
To illustrate the capacity for discriminating between drug quality and other variables I offer the following metaphor: Think of LSD as a window through which you look into a different world. Your position relative to the window, and what is on the other side represents set and setting. The clarity of the window represents the quality of the drug. Now your position and the scene outside the window can change dramatically, but reguardless you are still capable of perceiving the clarity of the window. Moreover, if you had never looked through a window before, and you were given a cloudy one to look through and told it was LSD, you would have no reason to doubt its authenticity because you have never had the experience of looking through a clear one.
