Happy 100th Birthday Tim. We sure could use more like you with an enthusiasm for the future.
Thanks for your kindness to me when I met you as a teenager in 1967. Your kindness helped immensely, and I have been grateful ever since.
Here is a great interview with Tim on his 100th by my friend Michael Horowitz who was Tim's archivist and Lisa Rein, who has helped keep the flame going in San Francisco all of these years.
To the future my friends. We can do this!

Back when I was a roadie in Houston, TX in 1981 one of the Indie rock stations used to play the most esoteric shit from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm (aka Wake and Bake time). They must have had every Timothy Leary and Robert Anton Wilson interview that existed along with Jean-Michel Jarre space music and cuts so deep I have never heard them again.
Tim and Robert's insight on the present and future was mind opening. Tim was disappointed that more people didn't realize that LSD was where things started and not where they ended. RAW was all about space exploration. There are still brilliant minds out there but most of them seem more concerned with making money.
