Write Up:
Well that was trippy :) Actually the movie turned out to be both funny and educational. It was made even better by the fact that both the director and one of the main contributors were both presetn for a Q & A after the screening.

We learned all kinds of neat things about mushrooms. For example, did you know that Oyster mushrooms can be used to clean up oil spills? After they clean the mess they can even be eaten with no evidence of contaminants inside them! Crazy nature at its best.
