It's also worth mentioning that MDMA is manufactured from Sassafras oil which comes from an endangered species of trees. There's a risk of the Sassafras trees becoming extinct because of MDMA manufacture in clandestine chemical plants in the jungles of south east Asia.
Although some sassafras oil for clandestine production of chemicals may come from such unsustainable farming, most probably comes from diversion.
Anyways, if sustainability of the source tree is the biggest issue, I'm sure most consumers would have no issues with a $1/dose sassafras tree sustainability fund contribution.

The study determining carcinogenicity, which would ban the substance automatically due to a 1960 FDA rule, occurred in 1977. The substance itself was not found to be carcinogenic, but two metabolites--found in rodents but not humans--were.
Shulgin began research on MDMA in 1976.
Foil hat is the best psychoactive drug.
1976 --> 1 + 9 + 7 + 6 = 23
5 characters.
77+68+77+65+0 = 287 = 7*41. 7 and 41 are the 4th and 13th primes. 13-4 = 9. The 9th prime? 23.
