How was I proven wrong ? You surmised that I must have had a certain type of absinthe, and, similar to your assertion of my behaviour, refused to accept my beliefs based on my experience alone.

You concluded that I couldn't have drank 'real' absinthe simply because I did not experience a secondary effect. You have zero knowledge of where my absinthe was sourced, and made assumptions about a market of which you clearly have no understanding. I went to Gerry's today on Old Compton Road in London (look it up -- amazing liquor store), and saw over 30 types of Absinthe ranging from £10 to £300.

It is pretty obvious that you haven't done any real research on thujone because it is scientific fact that it has no psychoactive properties whatsoever. Frequenting a forum with other absinthe enthusiasts probably isn't the best place to learn objective information (which is where I assume you must have learned your rudimentary facts).

And by the way, you needn't italicize words for emphasis.
