01:10 MichaelWarn; just seen another documentary, global trade of spices, peppers, tea

01:11 MichaelWarn; it's the same with all such products, they're extracting the aetheric oils, as they do with mate-coca tea leafs

01:11 MichaelWarn; it's the same "business" with cannabis btw.; all this "legal" stuff is extracts

01:12 MichaelWarn; all those extraction procedures are critical themselves already, it's harmfull to aromas and terpenes

01:13 MichaelWarn; i mean, this cheap ceylon tea, when boiling it, a thick layer of aetheric oil covers the the water surface

01:14 MichaelWarn; it may not be the best quality, but it certainly got same qualities of tea to clear the mind and boost the cerebral blood-flow a little

01:14 MichaelWarn; it's certainly better quality than any us-made cola brand

01:15 MichaelWarn; with peppers it's equally bad, i won't buy any, and i fear it's such peppers residues they too mix into tobaccos

01:15 MichaelWarn; after all aetheric oils were extracted, by heating and chemical solvents

01:16 MichaelWarn; that's too sold in grocery stores, as peppers, it's only a mix of dead plant residue which all ingredients were soaked out long before

01:16 *jacobk has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

01:17 MichaelWarn; and i distrust the "legal" cannabis industry alike, with their extracts

01:18 MichaelWarn; the active ingredients are rather sensitive to heat, above 25degC already, leave alone dissolving this into alcohols

01:18 MichaelWarn; and many growers shake off the resin tips

01:19 MichaelWarn; finally, in Berlin weed arrives, the dealers spray synthetic drugs onto, because customers complain the stuff didn't kick

01:20 MichaelWarn; what's "legalized" with cannabis, is the extraction and concentration, instead of sanctioning particularly this procedure

01:22 MichaelWarn; they're making commerce and business out of this, and the pharma industry probably too got their reasons

01:22 MichaelWarn; since they want to sell the extracts and tinctures

01:23 MichaelWarn; tobacco quality is awfull, i was complaining about this for many years

01:23 MichaelWarn; it had gotten really bad, in the recent 10 years

01:23 MichaelWarn; they're poisoning all of it nowadays

01:24 MichaelWarn; even the "natural american spirit" disappeared, the brand was transferred to JTI (japan tobacco international)

01:24 MichaelWarn; and i can say with certainty, the other big players too do it, flavoring and chemical poisoning: BAT (british-american tobacco), imperial tobacco, reemtsma

01:25 MichaelWarn; they're probably desperate, because tobacco sales declined, and they're trying to artificially sweeten all and everything

01:26 MichaelWarn; however, dutch zware shag, that's not some sweet tobacco, it isn't, but they're adding weird aromas to it

01:26 MichaelWarn; it's like mixing cola with mustard and garlik, awful

01:27 MichaelWarn; i am a little bitter about natural american spirit, it disappeared, they retained the logo, but sell chemically sweetened toxic waste nowadays

01:27 MichaelWarn; they're not permitted to brand anything "natural" anyway

01:30 MichaelWarn; they're selling pepper which all aetheric oils were extracted by the pharma industry

01:31 MichaelWarn; they're selling cannabis which aetheric oils were extracted from, by whoever

01:31 MichaelWarn; and with tea, it's a similar situation - that's why the coca-farmers in Bolivia complain, about their tea-plants

01:32 MichaelWarn; ironically, it is _legal_ to plant tea bushes, but it is illegal to extract cocaine from them - and then selling dead leafs as tea besides

01:33 MichaelWarn; i mean, it may not be the best tea, for 99cents/50bags, that's 2cents per cup of mate quality tea, plus a little hot water

01:34 MichaelWarn; and it's legally sold in any grocery store

01:35 MichaelWarn; i abstain from coffee for similar reasons, for many month already, i question the quality of it, how it's grown and roasted

01:35 MichaelWarn; can't stomach it

01:37 MichaelWarn; i am still scratching my head, how any government was supposed to "legalize" anything, which isn't ilegal

01:37 MichaelWarn; the ilegal business, surrounding tea and cannabis alike, is the extraction and concentration procedures

01:38 MichaelWarn; once done, then selling dead waste material as "medical" product, ridiculous

01:38 MichaelWarn; with peppers, they're not at least labelling it, most of the contents are the residual waste of what's left _after_ extraction

01:44 MichaelWarn; it's interesting how, they're rating various cannabis products, with 20% this and that

01:44 MichaelWarn; for me, there's only one rating to this: 100% untreated, no extraction of resins and oils, kept cool at lower humidity

01:46 MichaelWarn; the sri-lanka tea board got interesting rules, for their tea, otherwise it mustn't be sold as ceylon one

01:47 MichaelWarn; i may only trust the east-german importer of that tea, it's decent quality, it probably is

01:47 MichaelWarn; the aetheric oils accumulate at the water surface as they should, it's what a slurp into each morning first

01:47 MichaelWarn; i

01:48 MichaelWarn; and i enjoy, it's very easy on stomach, it's easy on my heart, doesn't cause any headache, the tea keeps the water-balance of the body

01:52 MichaelWarn; got that, it is legal to plant tea bushes, and drinking tea too is legal, any ordinary black tea is

01:52 MichaelWarn; it is ilegal to _extract_ the aetheric oils

01:52 MichaelWarn; for very many good reasons

01:52 MichaelWarn; and it's similar reasons with other products, such as peppers, or cannabis

01:55 MichaelWarn; i decided, not to buy any Samovar, i'll get myself a tea can instead, which can be kept hot with a tiny candlelight below

01:56 MichaelWarn; nonetheless, it's remarkable, Samovars are built in the same region where AKM is produced, Tula

01:56 MichaelWarn; and how this is related to global tea business

01:57 MichaelWarn; because, quality tea, usually, is available _everywhere_, in Turkey, in Russia, in Germany, it's a common habit

2 AM, August 4

02:00 MichaelWarn; and i do know, there is stronger teas, not sold in ready-made bags ... i think i'll try some other brand, with a little more aroma

02:02 MichaelWarn; and stockpile a little of this for bad situations, a quality black-tea helps alot when something hit the stomach a little too heavy

02:03 MichaelWarn; i don't know how, the tea-party rebellion was related

02:03 MichaelWarn; i was reading, americans drink more coffee instead of tea, due to this

02:04 MichaelWarn; and the tea-leafs which arrive from Bolivia, probably got extracted all their ingredients

02:04 MichaelWarn; so they can snuff powders in the white house at 1000% potencies

02:05 MichaelWarn; why would anyone buy cocaine, if there was quality tea in any grocery store?

02:05 MichaelWarn; why would anyone buy a cola, if a little tea with sugar and lemon was available, at 90% discount?

02:06 MichaelWarn; it's not only the active ingredients, it's too the aromatic taste of quality tea... without any sugars

02:22 MichaelWarn; i must abstain from tobacco

02:23 MichaelWarn; i lowered consumption, but it's too much still, and i am not satisifed with the quality of the tobacco

02:44 MichaelWarn; the cheap black tea, could be better quality than any highest ratet cokaine

02:45 MichaelWarn; simply because, the active ingredients, various alkaloids, aren't destroyed by extraction procedures

02:46 MichaelWarn; the cheapest ordinary tea from any grocery store

02:46 MichaelWarn; it's available in two variants, earl-gray with sweetening aromas i dislike, and the ordinary black tea without them

02:47 MichaelWarn; hundred years ago, tea was shipped, and prone to moisture and contamination, hence the british invented the earl-gray aroma to camouflage some quality problems

02:48 MichaelWarn; that's why, it isn't permitted to be sold as ceylon, because the tea board criteria are, it must be 100% pure for the label ceylon

02:52 MichaelWarn; in the documentary about global pepper trade, they explained it's not only pricing, too it's cheating involved

02:52 MichaelWarn; some seem to be willing to pay high prices, for pepper oil-extracts

02:53 MichaelWarn; in france, they prefer white-peppers grinded, while cheaper quality peppers are black, and not grinded

02:54 MichaelWarn; there's no real reason, peppers are sold white in france, other than optical, to add a white pepper into white dishes

02:55 MichaelWarn; so, it's easier, to get a black non-grinded pepper, and grind it yourself, and it may not be as bad, even when it's cheap

02:56 MichaelWarn; some exceptional quality, is the red pepper, but they're cheating with it too, if it's available at all

02:57 MichaelWarn; they too interviewed some pepper farmer in vietnam, who dumped 500grams of NPK-fertilizer into 200liters of water showering his plants with

02:57 MichaelWarn; to boost yields, and then wondered, the plants died, and none grow anylonger

02:58 MichaelWarn; this is an idiocy, regardless of pepper pricing

02:59 MichaelWarn; this farmer may have tried 5grams/200liters first... but he seems to have equated the amount of NPK mineral salts to the amount of peppers harvested

02:59 MichaelWarn; well, plants contain much water, and dried it's mostly carbons/cellulose anyway, soaked from the atmosphere

3 AM, August 4

03:00 MichaelWarn; they dumped that much fertilizers into (former) vietnam rain-forest, there won't be growing anything for a decade or two

03:01 MichaelWarn; then, blame-game, it's the pepper plants at fault, not fertilizers which contaminated the soil, unnecessarily

04:28 MichaelWarn; that's the twist with tea concentrates: to produce 1gramm of kokain, they need 100kilograms of quality tea

04:28 MichaelWarn; although there is enough quality tea available at walmart, for _everyone_

04:29 MichaelWarn; one junky in the white house sniffing 1gramm each day, wipes the tea stockpiles of an entire city

04:59 MichaelWarn; minor mistake, it's 200grams tea leafs for 1gramm cocaine

5 AM, August 4

05:00 MichaelWarn; that's a huge margin, given ~100grams are sold for 100pennies

05:01 MichaelWarn; to sniff 200grams they pay 75euros... instead of 2Euros

05:02 MichaelWarn; what's sold on the black-market is contaminated and dangerous
