Much of this issue talks about DXM, a cough suppressent/disassociative commonly found in cough syrups. If you wish to try it, please be careful. We take no responsibility for your actions, and if you get fucked up, you'll have to deal with it. Before you do anything, I'd highly suggest reading William White's DXM FAQ at http://www.frognet.net/dxm/. Also, be vary careful to only use cough syrups containing only DXM as the medicinal ingredient. Taking Coricidin does the same to you as, say, setting yourself on fire and cutting your head off with a chainsaw. So avoid it. Be very careful to spread out your dosages by 1 month per plateau (3rd plateau trip, wait 3 months) so as to give your brain time to repair itself in order to prevent brain damage. If you don't care about your body, heroin is, I'm sure, a much better high than DXM. DXM is, really, not worth the risk. If you're not going to be careful, don't give yourself opportunity to make a bad decision. 1: Robitussin (Legal Drugs, Vol. i) ---------------------- Theseus -------------------------------------------------- This is the first volume of a series of articles on legal drugs. When I say legal, their use or processing may not be legal. What I mean by legal is it is legal to get the basics needed for these drugs, and it is legal to possess them in the forms used here. --- Volume 1, part i This type of cough syrup is highly recommended, if only for it's taste. If I was actually taking syrup for a cough, this'd be what I'd buy, because it's so much easier to swallow. I was chugging it better than I can vodka. - From about 5:30 - 6:30 pm Discovered the Slipknot concert me and [dm] were gonna go to was cancelled. That annoyed me. I decided to go try DXM. Went to Shopper's Drug Mart in a nearby mall, bought a box of Robitussin Honey cough syrup, as I had seen the previous day. Of course, since I like my body, I first checked the DXM FAQ at the Lycaeum/Frognet to check the full name for DXM, then made sure the cough syrup contained only it. Cost just over $9 Canadian with taxes for the 115 mL bottle. I stopped in at Music World. It's full of shit, so they had nothing worth while. So I then went to HMV, looked around, spotted the Electronica section, remembered someone saying DXM enhances music like that very well, and grabbed a Massive Attack CD ("Blue Lines") - Approximately 7:25 pm Just ate dinner (KFC - bland gravy) and decided to have a go of the stuff. Called a friend to check the conversion rate from 2 oz to mL, turned out to be about 1/2 the bottle. So I poured a glass of milk, guzzled down half the bottle (tasted like honey, but with a bitter backing, and the same aftertaste as cough syrup) then drank some of the milk. I've heard the trip doesn't start until about 1/2 hour after taking it, so I'm waiting. Incidentally, this is a 1st plateau dose, perhaps a little lower. If you don't know, there are around 5 plateaus. The 5th is, generally, death or a coma. Not fun. Not to scare you off, you'd have to have quite a lot to acheive 5th. - 7:55 pm I'm just watching some Kids In The Hall right now. Nothing yet. I'd try to concentrate on any effects and enhance them, but I'm afraid of creating a placebo effect, something that tends to happen to me with many drugs, including caffeine and alcohol. My heartrate may be speeding up. I didn't time it earlier, so I don't know. I seem to be getting distracted by other things more easily, and I become very engrossed in them. It's hard to type a text file like this ;) I'm putting my new CD on. I just looked at my watch: it's only 8:05 pm. I thought it'd be later than that. Then I realize that little time has actually passed. It just seemed to take a long time. Neat. - 8:35 pm While talking to MMLJ online, I polished off the other 3/5 of the 115 mL bottle, since I had no effects so far. Still nothing. What am I expecting? Intense audio and visual effects, but that's expecting a lot... after all, DXM is much more like ketamine that it is like shrooms/LSD. I just remembered (it's 10:45 right now) that while talking to MMLJ time went much faster than earlier, when it seemed to be taking forever. - 9 pm It seems really easy to concentrate on one thought, or one thing. I noticed this when I realized I was thinking about absolutely nothing, just sitting here, listening to the music. Of course, that state is impossible to return to on purpose: you're too busy trying to not try to succeed. Parents just got home. Let's see if I can still talk alright, shall we? Incidentally, I had no grapefruit juice. Apparently it enhances DXM trips: I won't know this time, I guess. - 9:05 pm I talk just fine. Standing is a bit of a problem, as I sort of sway a bit. But I'm weird normally, so it goes unnoticed. Let's see how well I do at some computer games. First up: 4D Stunt Driving. Good game... dos based graphics, though, so you know. Let's see. Results: No better than usual, and no worse. The course seemed to take forever to drive, though. Next game: Lemmings. The original, bitches. Results: Same as usual, again, except I'm seeing things, minor eye trickery similiar to when you're awake too long - like I saw a 10 as 11. Friend called, playing command and conquer, I'm thinking real clearly though, games aren't affected. - 10 pm I'm really dizzy. I just sneezed, and I got a weird pulsating feel, like a headache that didn't hurt. It's cool, but if I look around to much I get really dizzy. - 10:30 pm Still really dizzy. Lost the ability to get distracted and then very engrossed in things. Just dizzy right now. - 10:37 pm I just tried masturbating while in this state. Very... odd... feelings. Until I came, I was pretty much just numb. I stopped at one point, and realized my penis felt the same as a finger... nothing erogenous about touching it. When I came, it was a sudden, intense orgasm, very short, it started just before I ejaculated and it stopped just after. After, when it was softening, it felt very numb around the head. Like if it was numbed by a dentist, but not cold. - 10:45 pm I just discovered that if I put one hand in front of my face so it divides the TV screen in half, then move it left and right, and screen looks like it's warped, or warping... I am thinking perfectly clearly, my body just is ignoring me to a certain extent. I still type just as quickly as normal, with the same accuracy. In fact, I think I'm typing faster than normal - but how can I tell? My perceptions of time are rather warped. I am still as grammatically competent as ever, and my vocabulary doesn't seem to be shortened. However, my body is feeling very dizzy, and sometimes I type a suffix onto a word without thinking, like worden instead of word. It's odd, because I don't realize I typed it at all unless I read over it. Just now, I thought I saw the screen scrolling, as if I were on IRC. Odd, since this is a text file. Also, I highly suggest you jump around while high on DXM. Occasionally I get the feeling that I'm hovering in the air. For some reason while typing this I'm rocking from left to right... perhaps the music? Just now, I thought that my mind had become totally clear of thoughts, but then I realized, uh, no it hadn't. It was very odd, the thought came out of no where, and it was based on nothing. Incidentally, I don't suggest you close your eyes and move your head up or down quickly - this might make you fall right over. It didn't me, but I've had the effect happen to me many times, simply as a result of being tired, or possibly while drunk. Perhaps I'm not thinking as clearly as I think I am. Perhaps I will lie on the floor for a little bit. In the dark. I should go get a candle! That'd be cool. (I never did go get a candle. I decided I didn't want to set the house ablaze inadvertantly. - Ed.) - 10:57 pm Simply put, holy shit. Holy fucking shit. I just lay down in the dark, listening to the CD, and I got this really, really intense feeling of having discovered something very important and very deep. As soon as I got up to type it, though, I forgot... I am playing in God's domain, and I never wish to return. I am in heaven. I can not find words to express the raw beauty of what I am feeling. It is like... like being in love. In love with the world. I feel in touch with everything. There is energy building up in me, I have something to say, but what it is, I'm not sure. (This is, easily, the weirdest thing I have ever said. - Ed.) By the way, I remembered what happened while on the floor. I felt like something inside me: 'soul' came to mind, it moved to the top of my body, and was pressing on my skin, trying to get out. I wonder if I was getting close to an OOBE? Or perhaps this is just a combination of what I have been studying in physics, re: how electrons move and are attracted/repelled, that combined with my deep spiritual belief. Excuse me: I'm going down for another dip in this pure, intense, raw pleasure. - 11:10 pm I just took control over my nervous system. I was lying on my stomach, and I could feel my heart throughout my entire chest... then I decided, I wanted to feel it here, and I did. Then I tried to move the feeling to somewhere else, and it moved. I could move my heartbeat anywhere in my chest, and the top of my stomach. I'm waiting for my friend, who I just called, to call back, so I can tell him about this. I'm in love. I'm in love with DXM. I'm in love with everything. Thanks, Slipknot. Thank you very much for cancelling. I also, while lying on the floor, forgot that my eyes were closed. I just remember because I wanted to make sure I didn't fall asleep. Turning the monitor on and looking at it from above, it looked like a dusty, rocky pathway. Very neat. Down I go. I'm back up for a second, just to relate an odd thing that keeps happening. You know when you look at a bright light, then look away, you can see it imprinted on what you see, sort of greenish coloured? And, if you look at a bright light, then turn it off so you're in the dark, you see it as being darker than the area around it. Well, I keep seeing a rectangle like that when I -open- my eyes... as if when I close them, I am seeing the bright light, then I open them and it's imprinted on my vision. Down I go. - Approximately midnight I was lying next to my phone, and I thought "I hope it doesn't ring, it'll surprise me" and it suddenly rang so I answered and yelled at my friend, "Don't do that to me!" On the phone with some friends. I keep interrupting them, and I don't realize it. Definately not a social drug, if you're stopping people from being social, euh? ;) They don't seem too impressed that I drank cough syrup. They seem to put it in the same category as huffing: stupid, and not a real drug. I will have to convince them otherwise. Not, of course, to try to get them to take DXM. Just so they know. And now, I will return to the floor, and probably awake next morning. Hopefully I won't be too sticky, sleeping on plastic... - 11:15 am, next morning. I couldn't sleep - whether it was the music, or the pillow, or the hard floor, I don't know. I doubt it'd be caused by the DXM, since when I ventured over to my bed and got in, I was asleep almost right away. No hangover of any kind. To conclude: #1 DXM at 1st plateau doses is alright for use while around other people, to a certain extent. You can talk and think just fine, but you are sort of dizzy and stumbly, and you might stare off into space, or very intently at something. #2 If you can't find gel caps, as I couldn't, that are straight DXM, Robitussin's honey cough syrup is highly recommended. It contains honey, lots of honey, so it tastes and feels like honey, with a slight cough syrup after taste. Milk is a good cover for the taste. Make sure it's skim milk, you fat motherfucker. #3 The trip did not start for me for about an hour, at which point I polished off the entire bottle. It lasted until I fell asleep, a good 6+ hours later. #4 I don't get hangovers from alcohol, but sometimes I drink and then later throw up, and even if it wasn't 'cause of the booze, I associate the two, and thinking about drinking for sometimes as much as weeks afterwards makes me feel sick. This is happening to me, sort of. When I think of DXM, I get that "uuuggghhh... please, no" feeling, despite it being an entirely positive experience. It's very odd. Maybe my body is telling me something. Maybe I'll wait a bit before doing it again. #5 Next time, I may very well avoid the milk.. whether it's my body, the amount of DXM taken, or the milk, I didn't get the visual effects I was looking for. I think next time I will drink the cough syrup all in one dose, and then just swishing some coke around my mouth, so the only thing in my stomach is DXM. BTW: The Lycaeum can be found at http://www.lycaeum.org/ and the DXM FAQ at http://www.frognet.net/dxm/ --- Volme 1, part ii Again, 115 mL of Robitussin Honey. For the record, the ingredients listed on the box are: Medicinal Ingredient: Each 5mL contains: Dextromethorphan HBr (Hydrobromide, I think) 10 mg. I weigh 170 lbs. You work out the mg/kg yourself, Dr. Math. Also, 100 ml of normal syrup (15 mg DXM HBr / 5 mL) takes me to 2nd plateau. So work out where you wanna be. Maybe someday I'll write up a 2nd plateau experience: it's very different. Non-medicinal Ingredients: Flavours, glycerin, honey, liquid gluecose, methylparaben, propylene glycol, sodium benzoate, water. The cost was $7.49 with 15% tax, for a grand total of $8.61. Ate before ingesting the cough syrup: 1 beef burrito 1 bagel covered in cheese Method of ingestion: 115 mL, all in 3 gulps, with a couple of sips of ginger ale to get rid of the taste. It seemed to taste worse this time. Timeline: - About 11:30 pm Took the 115 mL bottle. - 11:52 pm I just noticed that my limbs seem to fall asleep more often while on DXM: perhaps I lean my weight on them without noticing. I'm also being very distracted by things, just as in the first trip. Took me four minutes to type that - TV kept catching me. - Midnight Kids in the hall is on. I was gonna put on some KMFDM and have a listen, but it'll have to wait. - 12:15 am I just heard a bit of a song that sounded very great. I'm not sure if it was any better than normal though: never heard it before. - 12:28 am I think the DXM is really enhancing my feeling of being tired. I can usually stay up much later than this, especially considering that I woke up at around 10:30 this morning. I'm afraid that I'll fall asleep if I try lying in the dark with some music. But, I think I'll try anyway. - 1:00 am I got up because I realized I wasn't getting any effects. The monitor was too bright when I turned it on, so I looked away for a second. I started moving my hand back and forth, and realized that it was leaving slightly more trails than normal. So, minor visual effects, no auditory effects, and I'm tired. Not really worth the money, the drinking, or continuing to stay awake. I may very well head off to bed. Speculations on why the DXM isn't working as well this time? Tolerance, perhaps. - About 5:30 am I just woke up, for no apparent reason. Lying in bed, moving around a bit, something very odd happened: I hit the peak of the trip. A full 6 hours after taking the DXM, I peaked. This is not how DXM works. On DXM, you peak at around 2 hours, and should come down around 5-6. But that didn't stop it from just going ahead and peaking anyway. Moving my head, it looked like that world was very small, and rotating upon an axis not too far under the ground. I also got the dizzy, free-falling, light-headed sensation I got last time. My pupils were pretty big. Perhaps I woke up because I peaked and it messed up my heartrate or something, then when I woke up I was in the middle of or just starting to come off of the peak. - About 6:30 am I was lying in bed, and suddenly, this came to mind, out of no where: "Nine ninety ninety nine nine ninety nine ninety ninety nine nine nine ninety nine," etc, etc. I started strumming my fingers on the top of my head and singing this, and that's when I noticed that my fingers felt like sticks of cheese. By sticks, I mean "Cheese String" kinda sticks. After that, I was suddenly out of the trip. I tried jumping around, nothing. Quickly moving my head did nothing for me. The streaking effect is still here, but that's because it wasn't because of the DXM. The DXM just messed me up enough to think it was. Incidentally, the time in between 5:30 and 6:30 passed in what I would have called 10 minutes, had I not had a clock. Some people say they can't urinate while on DXM. No problems here. Also, I can't sleep. I'm starting to suspect that it's the DXM's fault, because, really, I didn't take anything else that'd keep me awake - a bagel? Ginger ale? No... Next time I do DXM I'm gonna extract the DXM from the syrup and capsulize it... I should be able to take more that way. (Instructions for extraction follow below. - Ed.) 2: DXM Chemistry/Extracting DXM from cough syrup ---------- William White --------------------------------------------- [I would suggest you follow the Agent Lemon process through, and then evaporate the water off and handle the DXM as you're told to in the original extraction process (11.1.2) - Ed.] Chapter 11 (of the DXM FAQ) DXM Chemistry and Extraction This section has been completely rewritten, as new information has been received about acid-base extraction and about extraction of DXM+guaifenesin preparations. The "Agent Lemon" process has also been added. Please remember to always wear safety goggles when working with chemicals, and be generally careful with these procedures. My thanks to all who did research on this subject. DO NOT ATTEMPT any of these processes unless you know what you are doing. I take no responsibility for your fuckups. 11.1 How Can I Extract DXM From Cough Syrups and Gelcaps? I'm going to present this as "kitchen chemistry" as I feel most people with adequate chemistry knowledge (and equipment) will be able to do it correctly without my help. There are three procedures for DXM extraction that are commonly used: precipitation and filtration, single-phase acid-base extraction, and dual-phase acid-bsae extraction (the "Agent Lemon" process). The first method is by far the least popular because the DXM precipitate is often so fine that it passes through the filter paper. You can, of course, still use the precipitation procedure; I just don't recommend it. If you do choose to precipitate DXM, try to get actual filter paper rather than a coffee filter - it will help. 11.1.1 Theory of Acid-Base Extractions The acid-base extraction process is a common method for isolating a desired chemical from undesirable "gunk". The theory is that certain chemicals (generally, alkaloids) occur in two forms: a water-soluble complex with an acid, and an oil-soluble free base form. For example, pseudoephedrine (Sudafed TM), a decongestant, is usually supplied as the hydrochloride salt (pseudoephedrine HCl). It can also exist as a base, without an acid molecule (thus the term "free base"). You can convert an alkaloid from acid salt to free base (or vice versa) using a base (or acid). The practical upshot is you take your chemical and "gunk", and raise the pH with a base (e.g., sodium hydroxide) until the chemical converts to free base form and precipitates out (since it's no longer soluble in water). Now you add a nonpolar solvent (an "oily" layer) for the chemical to dissolve in, shake for a long time, and all the chemical you want is in the nonpolar layer. Discard the polar (i.e., water) layer, and you're left with a nonpolar layer full of your chemical ..... Plus anything else that might be oil-soluble. So you reverse the process, by adding an acid until the free base turns into an acid salt, and precipitates out of the nonpolar layer. Add water, shake, and you can discard your nonpolar layer. This is the acid-base extraction, and it's very frequently used to extract the active ingredients from plants (free clue: the THC in marijuana is not an alkaloid and thus won't extract this way). 11.1.2 Single-Phase Acid-Base Extraction of DXM So how do we apply this to DXM? Well, it turns out that DXM is an alkaloid, and you can extract DXM from cough syrups using the same process. Furthermore, this procedure even works for DXM plus guaifenesin syrups, e.g., Robitussin DM, and generic equivalents (invariably called Tussin DM). The "DM" syrups usually only contain 10mg/5ml of DXM, so you won't get as much yield, but they're usually cheaper (and more commonly available). This is actually a single-phase acid-base extraction, because we only go from acid form (DXM HBr) to base form (DXM free base). The final product ends up dissolved in an organic solvent, which is then evaporated to leave DXM free base. I have added a new set of steps to this process to help to remove some of the gunk that can end up in the final product. These steps are in italics and may be omitted if desired. Do NOT try this extraction procedure with cough syrups or formulations containing acetaminophen/paracetamol, pseudoephedrine, other decongestants, or antihistamines. Decongestants and antihistamines are usually alkaloids and will end up in the final product; as for acetaminophen, I'm not convinced yet of the safety of the final product. For this procedure you will need: Cough syrup (obviously) or some other DXM-containing preparation. The only active ingredients that should be listed are dextromethorphan and guaifenesin. Avoid alcohol (check the inactive ingredients). If you can get DXM-only preparations, do so; the DXM+guaifenesin preparations tend to contain less DXM than the DXM-only ones. Two plastic two-liter bottles, washed and with the label removed. Of course, you can use flasks if you have them. A glass container to make your sodium hydroxide solution in (a mason jar works; you can also use a drinking glass). Two plastic bags with a slide-lock closure (e.g., Ziploc TM), big enough to hold the cough syrup plus an additional amount of lighter fluid. The plastic bags should be non-pleated. They will be used as separatory funnels. A nonpolar solvent. The easiest to get is Zippo TM lighter fluid (or an equivalent) - note that this is cigarette lighter fluid, not charcoal lighter fluid. You want your solvent to evaporate quickly, leaving no residue. The easiest way to test it is by placing a drop or two onto a pocket mirror, and letting it evaporate; if it leaves no residue or smell, you can use it. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Photography supply stores carry this. In a pinch, some people have been known to use Red Devil TM Lye. I do not advise this! Lye is likely to be impure. If you must use lye, make sure you let your sodium hydroxide solution settle (see below). Note that sodium hydroxide is caustic and severely damaging to the eyes, so wear your safety goggles! A heat-resistant glass baking dish (smaller is better). Distilled water (tap water won't work as well due to the chlorine and dissolved ions). A pair of scissors Access to the outdoors. To speed up the process (from overnight to about 30 minutes), you will have to evaporate the solvent with heating. For this you will require: An electric wok or skillet, or a hot plate with a pot of water on it. Basically, you want a flameless (electric) source of heat that will heat up a volume of water, which you can put your baking dish in (the hot water will heat the baking dish). A hair dryer An OSHA-certified organic vapor mask Some warnings about organic vapors. The solvents you will in all likelihood be dealing with (hexane, heptane, petroleum ether, whatever) are bad for you. Really bad for you -- they can give you brain damage if you inhale too much of them. You do NOT want to breathe the fumes. Get it? So, if you want to speed up the process, pony up US$30.00 or so for an OSHA certified organic vapor gas mask (tell `em you'll be painting with oil-based paint). Sure, it's uncomfortable and looks dorky. But it sure beats brain damage! Additionally, you absolutely mustdo the evaporation outdoors (unless you happen to have a fume cabinet handy. And NO, the stove or bathroom fan does NOT count as a fume cabinet). A brief word or two about sodium hydroxide: it's caustic, especially to the eyes, and when you add it to water it will heat up. Always add the sodium hydroxide to the water, and not vice versa. If you get it on your skin, wash it off with water (it won't eat through your hand unless you let it sit there). If you can't find sodium hydroxide at your local photo store, go get a photography magazine and look in the back for mail order suppliers. Many of them carry sodium hydroxide. It is a very common chemical and ordering it isn't going to bring the DEA knocking down your door. Please try to avoid using lye. If you still can't get sodium hydroxide, use the Agent Lemon process. Okay, here we go: Form a solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) by placing one tablespoon (15ml) of solid sodium hydroxide in one cup (about 236ml) of distilled water in the sodium hydroxide solution container. Stir until dissolved. If you are using lye (I don't recommend it), wait awhile to let any impurities settle out to the bottom. Note that dissolving the NaOH will generate some heat. Empty your cough syrup or formula into the two-liter, rinsing the last of the cough syrup out of the syrup bottles with distilled water. If using gelcaps, break them open and rinse out the inside of the capsules. The following steps in italics are suggested for removing some of the gunk that can make it through the extraction and leave you with a sticky residue instead of crystalline DXM. Add in enough lighter fluid to the two-liter bottle to make a roughly 1/4 inch (or roughly 5mm) deep layer of lighter fluid per 4oz of syrup. Cap the two-liter bottle and shake the living hell out of it for at least five minutes. Let it sit undisturbed until the two layers separate again. Pour the entire contents of the two-liter bottle into a sealable plastic baggie, and seal it shut. Hold it by one of the top corners so that a bottom corner is facing down. Let the layers separate again if necessary. Holding the baggie's corner over a CLEAN two-liter bottle, snip off the very tip of the corner. Let the cough syrup layer drain into the clean two-liter bottle, but pinch it shut right before any of the lighter fluid drains out. Discard the lighter fluid by placing it into an empty container and letting it evaporate outdoors. Do not put it down the drain or set it on fire. That's it ... now you should have cough syrup that has had a great deal of the flavorings and other gunk removed from it. You can repeat the italicized steps if you want to remove even more. Add one tablespoon (15ml) of sodium hydroxide solution to the two-liter bottle. You should see a rapid formation of a milky precipitate. Swirl the bottle gently to mix the syrup evenly, and the precipitate should redissolve (because there's not enough base yet). Repeat the above step, until the precipitate doesn't redissolve with swirling. The entire solution should be cloudy (stir well to make sure the base is evenly distributed). Add one more tablespoon (15ml) of sodium hydroxide solution to the bottle. Add enough lighter fluid to make a 1/8" (0.3mm) deep layer per 4oz bottle of syrup. Cap the bottle, shake the hell out of it for five minutes, and let it stand until the layers separate again. If the layers don't want to separate, try adding table salt. Carefully pour the contents of the bottle into the sealable plastic bag, and close it shut ("yellow and blue make green-it's sealed!"). Hold the bag by one of the top corners so that one of the bottom corners points down. Let the two layers separate again (this should only take a few seconds). Cut off the tip of the bottom corner and allow the water layer (the bottom layer) to drain out of the bag. When the water layer has drained out, pinch the bag shut. Hold the bag over the baking dish, and allow the nonpolar solvent layer to drain out into the baking dish. Take the baking dish outdoors. At this point, if you don't have a gas mask and a way to heat the baking dish, you'll have to let the solvent evaporate (which may take a day or so), so skip the next 4 steps. Put on your gas mask and take the baking dish, hair dryer, and electric heat source outdoors. Place the baking dish into the container of water (electric wok, electric skillet, hot plate with pan of water, whatever), and set it to simmer. If you can't set the temperature low enough, you'll have to turn the heater on and off manually to maintain a near-boiling temperature. Plug in the hair dryer and gently blow hot air into the baking dish. Take care not to splash solvent over the sides of the dish. Incidentally, make sure you don't overload your circuit; it might be a good idea to alternate heating with the hot plate/wok/skillet and heating with the hair dryer. Continue heating until all the solvent evaporates. At this point you may see a thin layer of crystalline material; you might see a shiny layer of goo that looks a lot like the glass itself (which can be confusing); or you might see a layer of brown gunk. Whatever. Anyway, make sure all the solvent has evaporated. If your baking dish is covered with an oily substance (goo, gunk, whatever), you in all likelihood managed to extract some propylene glycol (or something else) along with the DXM. Blow hot air from the hair dryer onto the surface of the dish until the material dries completely (this may take 5 to 10 minutes). This should evaporate the propylene glycol, leaving behind only DXM. Scrape the DXM off the baking dish with a razor blade or other convenient sharp edge. You now have DXM free base. A few comments. First, guaifenesin seems to itself convert to an oily layer if you add too much sodium hydroxide, so don't overdo it. Second, if you happen to have lab equipment you can of course use a separatory funnel (which is what the plastic baggie is for). Third, if you don't think you got anything, make sure the baking dish is completely dry; sometimes the DXM free base plus propylene glycol can look a lot like the glass itself. 11.1.3 Agent Lemon: Dual-Phase Acid-Base Extraction of DXM The Agent Lemon process is a newer and in all honesty a much better method for extracting DXM. It takes less time, doesn't involve playing with flammable and toxic fumes, and doesn't require sodium hydroxide. Here is the Agent Lemon method as posted on Usenet. I have inserted a few comments in italics, primarily with regards to separating the organic and water phases. They use a siphon tube, but I believe that the Zip-Lock TM bag separatory funnel is a better idea. OPERATION AGENT LEMON TOP SECRET Reverend Jim Barris Reverend Indole Ringh Reverend Anastasia Albert After establishing control over 80% of the world's Drixoral supply, our troop was in a position to change the face of DXMology forever, in the interest of accelerating human transcension. The Mission: extract DXM from cough syrups with materials and equipment that one could buy without any trouble at your nearest Woolworth's. Theory: The DXM FAQ [1] describes an acid-base extraction method that requires materials (specifically Sodium Hydroxide) that are difficult to get in pure form for many people. Read it for the theory. Now, after you read it, we'll add on the following: The "acid-base" extraction in the FAQ does not actually use an acid stage. We can add an acid stage, to remove the DXM from the solvent. Therefore, we can avoid the need to evaporate a lot of solvent -- we can just throw it out the drain. Thus, you can do this without producing vapors that will lead your neighbors to think you are running a meth lab. The Materials: (this will blow you away) DXM-containing cough syrup. This process will probably produce a dangerous product if you use a syrup that contains any active ingredients other than DXM or Guaifenesin. DON'T! We used Robo Max Cough because CVS was closed. Ordinary Household ammmonia (clear, not lemon or some other scent) Lighter Fluid (we used "Zippo"; check criteria in FAQ [1]). Make sure it evaporates with no residue. Citric Acid. Available as a canning supply at your neighborhood supermarket. We used lemon juice on the first attempt, but we switched to citric acid after consultations ([1], personal communication). Equipment: A brief interjection here. This paper suggests using a siphon to separate the layers. However, I think the plastic baggie separatory funnel is a superior method, for two reasons. First, rubber tubing (and many types of plastic) are attacked by organic solvents, and can degenerate, or (worse) dissolve into the solvent and possibly muck up the extraction. Second, you get much better control with a separatory funnel, even a kitchen chemistry version. I will follow up their method with my suggestion. Some containers and flexible rubber tubing to use as a siphon. We cut ours off our vaporizer because we don't know where we stashed the tubing. Two large zipper-seal (e.g., Zip-Lock TM) plastic freezer bags, unpleated (if you want to use the separatory funnel concept instead of the siphon). Concept: Prepare ahead of time a solution of the citric acid in water. For two bottles of tussin (8 oz each) we used 3 tablespoons of citric acid in 8 fluid ounces of water. Add ammonia to DXM. DXM converts from hydrobromide salt to freebase and precipitates out of water. Since it is now nonpolar it wants to go into a non polar solvent. Now you add a nonpolar solvent and shake hard. Free base goes into solution in solvent. Let solvent float to the top. (doesn't mix with water) Physically separate the layers. Now the DXM is in the nonpolar layer, mix that with the acid and shake well. The DXM converts back into the acid salt (since lemon juice has citric acid in it, we make DXM hydrocitrate). This is so beautiful because the DXM is practically pulled across the oil-water interface by the hydrogen ion gradient. Now you throw out the oil layer, and the DXM is now acid salt in the lemon juice. Boil it for a few minutes in the microwave, stir it good, so any volatile solvent that remains will evaporate. You are left with "Agent Lemon" or "DXemon juice", a highly concentrated product, which is superior to cough syrup -- if you really wanted to, you could probably boil away the water -- with no danger, since the amount of solvent is almost nothing, and get a crystalline product that might be cut with anhydrous citric acid. I wouldn't suggest it, since it might irritate the stomach. Details: Put cough syrup in 2 liter bottle. Pour in a lot of ammonia. Excess is not a serious problem. The ammonia volume was about equal to the syrup volume. Stir. Pour into a tightly sealable vessel. A funnel is good to have. Incidentally, you can probably just use the same 2-liter bottle and pour the lighter fluid into that; the plastic won't dissolve. Add about a 1/2 inch thick layer of lighter fluid. Shake the hell out of the vessel. We did it for about five minutes. Pour the liquid back into 2 liter. Let the organic solvent layer separate, it wil float on top of the water. We used a siphon to separate the layers. We filled the siphon (a flexible rubber tube) with water, and while covering one end, plunged the siphon deep into the water layer. Hold the free end of the siphon below the other end of the siphon, and let go of the end. Let the liquid drain into a jar. Throw out the watery layer. The other way to separate the layers is with a separatory funnel, or the approximate version (a plastic bag). Pour the entire contents of the bottle into the sealable plastic bag, seal it, let the layers separate, clip off the bottom corner, and let the watery layer (on the bottom) drain out into the drain. Then let the organic layer drain into the jar. If you want to minimize the amount of water-ammonia-cough syrup inactive ingredients, add more water, let separate and siphon (or separate) again. We were paranoid and did this four times. The product we got towards the end didn't even taste like ammonia. Now mix the solvent layer with the citric acid solution. Transfer to snapple jar. Really shake the hell out of it. We shook it for 5 minutes, splitting the work between the three of us. It takes a few minutes to separate. Wait. Some have reported a soapy layer forms in between the two layers; if so, just let it sit until the soapy layer is completely gone (it may take a few hours). Next stage. Use the siphon again, we recommend being conservative and not letting any solvent get into the siphon at all, so we left a little water layer. Or use a new plastic storage bag, and this time keep the water layer and discard the organic layer. Be friendly to the environment and let it evaporate outside; don't just pour it down the drain. Boil the lemon juice for a few minutes (we did for seven), the theory is that if a little bit of the organic solvent is there, it will boil away. Drink the Agent Lemon. We have not deterimined the best method, we think you could mix it with something, or maybe drink it straight. It tastes really bitter (that's the DXM). Results: (Note: This was a previous trial with 4 oz. of syrup and with lemon juice instead of citric acid. This may give an inferior product.) One of us (I.R.) volunteered to assay the material extracted. Since I am a 105 kg. male in good health (except for the tail end of a nagging cold) I was considered to be the best subject. I thinned the material from about 1 fl. oz. to about 8 fl. oz. and added six tablespoons of sugar. I consumed the material at approximately 4:20 in the afternoon. The extracted product seemed to have a washed-out lemon taste (some flavor oil probably went into the organic phase). There was a bitter taste which I believe is DXM. I tasted (very carefully!) a few microliters of the lighter fluid, and that didn't seem to match the weird taste. After about 15 minutes (while the other investigators smoked a bong) I noticed significant pharmacological effects. At about 5:30 I was experiencing effects consistent with a dose of about 3.0 mg/kg. This suggests a yield in the 90% range. (about 315 mg of 350 recovered). At about this time, I took a couple of small bong hits myself, which produced instant second plateau effects. This backs up my assay of the dosage. At this time (9:30) I am still experiencing light effects. The new citric acid product now sits in Mr. Barris's refrigerator. We plan to test it soon (possibly this weekend, Mar. 1 1996) and will report. This research was sponsored by DDD Grant 3125-5-23.

Fem and Garbage Collection , shouldn't this be in Cosmopolition? --- 4: How To Eat A Pussy ---------- Anonymous ---------------------- Hey, I have a lot of respect for all you guys who like to eat pussy because there are too few of you out there. And I'm not the only woman who says this. Furthermore, some of you guys who are giving it the old college try are not doing too well, so maybe this little lesson will help you out. When a woman finds a man who gives good head, she's found a treasure she's not going to let go of too quickly. This is one rare customer and she knows it. She won't even tell her girlfriends about it or that guy will become the most popular man in town. So, remember, most guys can fuck, and those who can usually do it satisfactorily, but the guy who gives good head , he's got it made. Most women are shy about their bodies. Even if you've got the world's most gorgeous woman in bed with you, she's going to worry about how you like her body. Tell her it's beautiful, tell her which parts you like best, tell her anything, but get her to trust you enough to let you down between her legs. Now stop and look at what you see. Beautiful, isn't it? There is nothing that makes a woman more unique than her pussy. I know. I've seen and tasted plenty of them. They come in all different sizes, colors and shapes; some are tucked inside like a little girl's cunnie and some have thick lusciouslips that come out to greet you. Some are nested in bushes of fur and others are covered with transparent fuzz. Appreciate your woman's unique qualities and tell her what makes her special. Women are a good deal more verbal than men, especially during love-making. They also respond more to verbal love, which means, the more you talk to her, the easier it will be to get her off. So all the time you're petting and stroking her beautiful pussy, talk to her about it. Now look at it again. Gently pull the lips apart and look at her inner lips, even lick them if you want to. Now spread the tops of her pussy up until you can find her clit. Women have clits in all different sizes, just like you guys have different sized cocks. It doesn't mean a thing as far as her capacity for orgasm. All it means is more of her is hidden underneath her foreskin. Whenever you touch a woman's pussy, make sure your finger is wet. You can lick it or moisten it with juices from inside her. Be sure, by all means, to wet it before you touch her clit because it doesn't have any juices of it's own and it's extremely sensitive. Your finger will stick to it if it's dry and that hurts. But you don't want to touch her clit anyway. You have to work up to that. Before she becomes aroused, her clit is too delicate to be handled. Approach her pussy slowly. Women, even more so than men, love to be teased. The inner part of her thigh is her most tender spot. Lick it,kiss it, make designs on it with the tip of your tongue. Come dangerously close to her pussy, then float away. Make her anticipate it. Now lick the crease where her leg joins her pussy. Nuzzle your face into her bush. Brush your lips over her slit without pressing down on it to further excite her. After you've done this to the point where your lady is bucking up from her seat and she's straining to get more of you closer to her, then put your lips right on top of her slit. Kiss her, gently, then harder. Now use your tongue to separate her pussy lips and when she opens up, run your tongue up and down between the layers of pussy flesh. Gently spread her legs more with your hands. Everything you do with a woman you're about to eat must be done gently. Tongue-fuck her. This feels devine. It also teases the hell out of her because by now she wants some attention given to her clit. Check it out. See if her clit has gotten hard enough to peek out of it's covering. If so, lick it. If you can't see it, it might still be waiting for you underneath. So bring your tongue up to the top of her slit and feel for her clit. You may barely experience it's presence. But even if you can't feel the tiny pearl, you can make it rise by licking the skin that covers it. Lick hard now and press into her skin. Gently pull the pussy lips away and flick your tongue against the clit, hood covered or not. Do this quickly. This should cause her legs to shudder. When you sense she's getting up there toward orgasm, make your lips into an O and take the clit into your mouth. Start to suck gently and watch your lady's face for her reaction. If she can handle it, begin to suck harder. If she digs it, suck even harder. Go with her. If she lifts her pelvis into the air with the tension of her rising orgasm, move with her, don't fight her. Hang on, and keep your hot mouth on her clit. Don't let go. That's what she'll be saying too: 'Don't stop. Don't ever stop!' There's a reason for that, most men stop too soon. Just like with cock sucking, this is something worth learning about and worth learning to do well. I know a man who's a lousy fuck, simply lousy, but he can eat pussy like nobody I know and he never has trouble getting a date. Girls are falling all over him. But back to your pussy eating session...T here's another thing you can do to intensify your woman's pleasure. You can finger-fuck her while she's enjoying your cunt-licking talents. Before, during or after.She'll really like it. In addition to the erogenous zones surrounding her clit, a woman has another extremely sensitive area at the roof of her vagina. This is what you rub up against when you're fucking her. Well, since your cock is pretty far away from your mouth, your fingers will have to do thefucking. Take two fingers. One is too skinny and three is too wide and therefore can't get deep enough. Make sure they're wet so you don't irritate her skin. Slide them inside, slowly at first, then a littlefaster. Fuck her with them rhythmically. Speed up only when she does. Listen to her breathing. She'll let you know what to do. If you're sucking her clit and finger-fucking her at the same time, you're giving her far more stimulation than you would be giving her with your cock alone. So you can count on it that she's getting high on this. If there's any doubt, check her out for symptoms. Each woman is unique. You may have one who's nipples get hard when she's excited or only when she's having an orgasm. Your woman might turn flush red or begin to tremble. Get to know her symptoms and you'll be a more sensitive lover. When she starts to have an orgasm, for heaven's sakes, don't let go of that clit. Hang in there for the duration. When she starts to come down from the first orgasm, press your tongue along the underside of the clit, leaving your lips covering the top. Move your tongue in and out of her cunt. If your fingers are inside, move them a little too, gently though, things are extremely sensitive just now. If you play your cards right, you'll get some multiple orgasms this way. A woman stays excited for a full hour after she's had an orgasm. The last advice I have for you is this: After you've made her come, make her your slave by giving her the best head she's ever had, don't leave her alone just yet. Talk to her, stroke her body, caress her breasts, pinch her nipples. Keep making love to her quietly until she's come all the way down. A man can get off and go to sleep in the same breath and feel no remorse, no sense of loss. But a woman by nature requires some sensitivity from her lover in those first few moments after sex. Oral sex can be the most exciting sexual experiences you can have. But it's what you make it. Take your time, practice often, pay attention to your lover's signals, and most of all, enjoy yourself. 5: Contact Info ---------- E-mailing gzc@privacyx.com ought to work.
