    I've been trying to reply to this for two days, but the website, or at least my part of it has been FUBAR - couldn't sign in to do anything! Seems to be working now, after many emails back and forth with Tribal Support.

    This guy is your boss? He's really into mushrooms - and my aren't those giant mushrooms suggestive? I found an 11 pound puffball a year or two ago in our ravine, but those cetainly have that beat!

    I loved his silver turtle necklace in the first video. I made a turtle necklace out of pipestone, but I sent it to Eustace Conway at his Turtle Island Preserve. Interesting individual.

        Yeah, I've got a picture of it. Maybe I'll put it up back at my corner of BRA. The puffballs are often full of tiny white maggots, so if you want to eat them you have to look close - unless you want the protein of course!

          yeah thats really common with a lot of varieties of fungi, you have to get them sort of young before the insects lay their larve in them. i have seen just huge patches of lobster mushrooms just totally riddled with them... but i think they attract them on purpose perhaps... to spread the spores?

            my first mushroom teacher told me to always dry the goldentops, because one can get lungworms from fresh cubensis.

              you really should never eat any mushroom raw honestly... edible visionary or medicinal... your body cannot digest it... besides... mushrooms are decomposers so they are a sort of on the ground level of bacteria and buggy boos...
              fecies loving mushrooms REALLY need to be dried and even cooked well unless they are grown in a pasturized feces.... they are called secondary decomposers and require something else to get the process started. wood lovers are primary decomposers.
