You know, everybody told me all that shit, but my experience was different. Mushrooms last a shorter amount of time, but there is one intense, long lasting peak. Acid felt like I peaked like 15 times, and each time as soon as it got really intense, it started to mellow out. To me acid vs. mushrooms is like Sprinting 4 quarter miles and taking breaks, vs. running a mile straight without a break. Also, my sense of time is gone on hallucinogens, so an 8 hour mushroom trip vs. a 12 hour acid trip feels pretty much the same.
