117. you are fogetting Ecstacy
MDMA is basically an LSD knock-off chemically and is a pretty powerful hallucinogen and is of course the current drug of choice. To the point where they recently categorized MDMA in the same way as crack cocaine in terms of sentencing. Having never done MDMA I can't really speak to its effects but I'm told they are pretty similar to LSD, with less of the visual aspect while enhacing the auditory and tactile aspects.
