I haven't bought a copy of High Times since Timothy Leary died, "on the internet". But they have a new podcast which I am yet to sample. https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/...75a7-414034057
Was Leary going to broadcast his death on the InterNet?
Leary wanted to share his experience of dying with the world, and one day he spontaneously came up with the idea of broadcasting his last moments on the world wide web. He talked about it to his friends and mentioned it in a few press interviews, which ignited a flurry of rumors that spread like wildfire through the internet community, eventually exaggerated by fans who sought attention and pretended to have inside information. Although he seriously considered and even played with the idea, when Leary's health grew worse the idea was innocently abandoned. In the end Leary requested his last hours be videotaped, but the footage was never publicly shown.
