--------------------
Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing
Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect, nor do I strive to be
I am alive in this world of face-first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard for the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race or color
A hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers and letting them fall apart
To a new rhythm, just to feel better

Well doesn't that just suck.
A great man who will always be remembered.

RIP...
If anyone deserves to go on to a blissful place, it is him. LSD has touched so many lives in a positive way, myself especially. He had a good run, a great one actually. It was simply his time.

and what's even better is that he doesn't look like some kook or a dirty hippie or something
he looks like a responsible respectable man whose contribution to the scientific and psychedelic worlds
is clearly of great benefit to mankind.

RIP if he's passed.
Keep your eyes peeled though... this is all currently based on a blog report. The story has yet to break in the media.

Aw, that's a shame!  Well, at least he lived a long life and was lucid up to the very end.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Hofmann
"Rumors of death
A comment on the popular social news site reddit announced Hofmann's death on April 29, 2008.[6] The announcement was also echoed by the blog Boing Boing,[7] but at this stage there are no other sources to confirm this rumor."
Thats not exactly a reliable source, if Hoffmann died I would think it would be on the news. At 103 though, you really can't ask for much more.
