The Vernal Equinox 2001 issue of The Entheogen Review features:

"Snuffy Proboscis out on a Limb: Snuff--Syndetics, Synecdoches" by Jonathan Ott showcases seven intriguing and far-reaching vignettes that spring forth from the chapter on tobacco-snuffs in Ott's much-anticipated forthcoming book, Shamanic Snuffs or Entheogenic Errhines. (A comprehensive review of diverse insufflated plant-preparations used as shamanic inebriants.)

"Some Active Trichoceri (Part II) by K. Trout is the continuation of a series of articles focusing on desirable cacti species and clones in need of further propagation. Includes the description of several specific commercially-available plants, including one described as "2X or slightly more" potent than T. pachanoi, which GC/MS showed to have a strong spike at mescaline with little else present. Numerous photos accompany this article, to help with plant identification.

"Short-Acting by Lazar describes a few ways of administration for phenethylamine compounds that decrease their length of action, mitigate most side-effects, and allow one to use about 1/4 what a "normal" oral dose is.

"Network Feedback" discusses means of potentiating entheogens, how to make free-base forms of various chemicals, current drug-testing procedures, Indian "kratom" from JLF, a source for 4-AcO-DIPT, cacti classification schemes, and more.

"Moving Into the Sacred World of DMT" by Infinite Ayes responds to a chapter from Dr. Rick Strassman's new book DMT: The Spirit Molecule printed in an earlier issue of The Entheogen Review, and shares another view of how DMT might be used.

The "Events Calendar" relates the most current happenings, including Stan Grof's final Holotropic Breathwork class before his retirement, The Lindesmith Center- Drug Policy Foundation conference, and the Consciousness Technologies retreat.

The "Sources" column by Jon Hanna reviews the Alchemind Society's "Ask Dr. Shulgin" online service, Heuristicon (a pollen collection and hash-pressing device), and River's Source (a new ethnobotanical supplier).
