Check it. With a donation to Erowid (http://www.erowid.org) (one of, if not the finest resources on mind-altering substances), you can get a swanky glass drug molecule (http://www.erowid.org/donations/incentives_molecule.php) of your choice. Here's an image of the chemical structure of MDMA (Ecstacy):

We are pleased to be able to offer beautiful glass molecules as membership gifts. They are hand-crafted by visionary artist Ed Steckley of Celestine Glass (http://www.esglassart.com/index.html), as a thank you for those who contribute to Erowid. The small works of art range from 3-9 inches long with each atom of the molecule .45-.95 inches in diameter.

The molecules are made of borosilicate glass as 3D representations of 2D molecular structures (so they can lie flat on a table). Different elements--carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, etc--are represented by different color glass. Contributors can choose the molecular structure of psychoactive chemicals such as DMT, LSD, MDMA, Psilocin, and Serotonin.

Small glass molecules are available at the $125 level (http://www.erowid.org/donations/membership_ally.php)
Medium glass molecules are available at the $200 level (http://www.erowid.org/donations/membership_fellow.php)
Large glass molecules are available at the $500 level (http://www.erowid.org/donations/membership_sponsor.php)

Select a membership level above or visit our glass molecule availability page (http://www.erowid.org/donations/incentives_special1.php) to see what chemicals and sizes are available.

Not only will you get hooked up with some cool art, you'll be supporting a really good organization. Anyone want to try their hand at whipping up some of these?

Support EROWID folks, as they are also great folks.

Now that is a present for the person who has tried everything! But, which one to choose?

Is there a specific time frame during which these are available? I'd like to contribute once my cash flows a little better.

i think this version looks cooler:

i've been considering doing it for a while... but it does look a bit tough so i will just wait till i am a bit more experienced, or at least have cash to blow.
