re DVap's blog: The gamma carboline is a likely candidate, yes. Besides MAOI effect boosting nic, might be some calming alkaloids too; didn't see any info in this regard on my googling as yet. But confirmed something I feared - many alkaloids are larger molecules than nic - gamma carboline for example has a bp appraoching 400C. Of course it will be in a mixture so may still be vaporised to a significant extent (hopefully similarly in extent to combusted tobacco.
Further to my last post, I have mentioned before how tea manages to comine stimulation and relaxation (theanine, and maybe others). I have 70mg liquid right next to me, but never been tempted to try it (I will though for the important experience); not because i think it's dangerous, just feel it will not work for me (though i need to try to be sure).

ps: Given the modes and focii of action of many alkaloids such as gamma carboline, wonder if there is a connection between the alt-alkoloid seekers and being 'night owls' ...
(there is a connection with melatonin)
