No, just the date of first determined use -- 1948. I believe psychotropic is
a coined word, so you'd have to talk to the person(s) who coined it to find
out the exact derivation. I did a web search, but coudn't find that info.

it's probably really ditchweed ;^)

i was trying to point out the blatant hypocrisy that the government
applies to the molecule: they can't claim that it is *only* medicine if
they supply it or if it is manmade. the molecule is either eficacious
or it is not. the laws are quite clearly not based on science.


i guess i didn't make it sarcastic sounding enough.

i know that thc is medically useful -- i was trying to apprise others of
the government's incomprehensible (and nonsensical) approach to the issue.

thanks bobbie
