Berkeley Barb

In January 1970, Manson himself told the Los Angeles Free Press, My philosophy comes from underneath the boots and sticks and clubs they beat people with.

That same month, psychiatrist David E. Smith of the Haight-Ashbury Free Clinic told the Berkeley Barb that Manson and his followers had rejected conventional education and socialization as forms of brainwashing, only to replace them with Manson's own system of authority.

Then what he did is substitute his own philosophy, Smith observed.

Writing in Dissent in 1972, sociologist Jesse R. Pitts described how the family's devotion to Manson reinforced his increasingly fantastic beliefs.

Mm-hmm

... religiously back then, uh, Berkeley Barb.

In fact, we in Wisconsin had our own underground newspaper that I helped edit, so full tilt radical left.

But yeah, a, a religious conversion in 1971 put an end to that, and, uh, politics went in a more conservative direction.

and this happens just as Bob and he are about to start this book together, right, or get the book to the next stage.

Leary eventually resurfaces, and then in March 1975, Wilson sort of displays the periodic table of energy to the world, if you will, he reveals it in an article in the Berkeley Barb, you know, where he's breaking this whole model down for people.

And this is what is essentially in the periodic table of energy.

This is where Leary is, his mind is at, at that time for this notion of the Eighth Circuit Model of Intelligence, or what Bob called it, the eight caliber brain.
