The Era since 1938 when Albert Hofmann created LSD. We're now 70 years into this New Era. Stewart Brand backstory from the way early Trips Festivals, the first modern Raves, up thru the late Whole Earth Catalogs, CQ, and the Whole Earth Review. This is the third book on the From LSD to the Google G1 process in Kaliformulae. A recent development is the hyper-hip massive co-op of Coolness, the Long Now Foundation. Grabbing the next 10,000 years! Too much. I date the new great Long Now from 1938. see above. Also from 1943. 1938-1943 is the Great Cusp where the previous 50,000 years of Human History ends and this new Dash to the Stars and Center of this Galaxie finally begins the next 50,000 years!

For many, it was more than a publication: it was a way of life. The Whole Earth Catalog billed itself as "Access to Tools," and it grew from a Bay Area blip to a national phenomenon catering to hippies, do-it-yourselfers, and anyone interested in self-sufficiency independent of mainstream America (now known as "living off the grid"). In recovering the history of the Catalog's unique brand of environmentalism, historian Kirk recounts how Stewart Brand and the Point Foundation promoted a philosophy of pragmatic environmentalism that celebrated technological achievement, human ingenuity, and sustainable living. Kirk shows us that Whole Earth was more than a mere counterculture fad. At a time when many of these ideas were seen as heretical to a predominantly wilderness-based movement, it became a critical forum for environmental alternatives and a model for how complicated ecological ideas could be presented in a hopeful and even humorous way.--From publisher description.
