Morels grow in our field in spring. I collected a bunch but sadly forgot about them and they all went bad. :(

I will say that I have never forgotten about morels in my possession.:cool:

We get white morels growing south of here. And we have friends in Iowa whose yard sprouts black morels profusely in the spring and are fine with us driving out there and helping ourselves.

Are possessed of psilocybin or any like substance? o_O
Or do they just taste of bitter dirt like most mushrooms? :D
 
I work for a giant public cloud provider on various open source stuff.

My academic training was in applied physics and signal processing, which was then applied to networking.

Audio hobbies are volunteer recording engineering and mixing/mastering for publicly funded symphonies and jazz organizations, collecting vinyl of 1950s-1970s jazz originally issued on LP, DSP applications to networked audio using open source components, and, most recently, reel to reel tape collection, where I hunt out 15 ips master tapes from live performances of community orchestras and Cold War era Communist radio orchestras, convert them to digital, and share them.

When not doing that stuff, it's working on my house, landscaping taking care of my wife and pets (1 greyhound, 2 cats), hunting, cooking, comic books, and collecting mid 20th century art and furniture, especially poster art from 1880's Japanese ukiyo-e, 1920-1930s German Bauhaus, Soviet propaganda, 1960s space age posters and late 60's / early 70's Bill Graham psychedelic rock concert posters.

I initially read the bolded part as Billy Graham psychedelic posters. Now that would be esoteric.

You might look for this one on reel to reel.

And this one too. 5th dimension sounds psychedelic.

Confession: I don't think I could reliably identify a Psilocybe cyanescens. One more indication of how wrong my life has gone. :D

What about:
Psilocybe azurescens
Psilocybe cubensis
Psilocybe allenii
 
None of the above.
'
Yeah, I'm pathetic.
