Well, this is with abuse, for sure. Abuse. Abuse, definitely for sure. One of the things that's pretty interesting is look at the cultures that have successfully integrated psychedelics, like, for example, the ayahuasca churches that are in Brazil or the Native American church that uses peyote, often for Native Americans that have problems with alcohol.

Peyote is mescaline, yeah. And huachuma is from San Pedro. Cactus is also that has mescaline in it. But this nine-year-old did not take the same amount of peyote as the rest of us, but he took more appropriate for his body weight. And it's within a cultural context, within a family context, within a religious supportive context, these cultures tend not to have age limits.

So I think when you talk about the developmental problems that come from abuse, that's totally the case. But when you talk about occasional use for inspiration, particularly when – In a ceremonial setting. In a ceremonial setting, which has been for centuries and centuries. They've refined it. There's no neurological damage that comes to your brain from mescaline.
