You must check out Swex and Drugs and Prometheus Rising!

I thought the Cosmic Trigger was one of the Schroedinger's books? In any case, I have read the Illuminatus and Schroedinger trilogies, The first three Historical Illuminatus books (I don't think I ever found a copy of The World Turned Upside-Down), Sex and Drugs, Prometheus Rising, and the Principia Discordia, which I understand he had a hand in writing.

I like his ideas, and I wish the world were like that, but I find he lacks applicability. Of course, I've never tried all that hard.

That said, Illumiatus is one of my favorite books of all time. I find it immensly entertaining. It may be the longest Shaggy Dog joke ever, and it's funny as hell along the way (excpt for that first bit with the squirrel. WTF was that??)

I also really enjoy Schroedinger's cat, particularly the Third Book where he appropriately changes all the cuss words. I think he nailed Rhenquist dead on.

I've liked everything of his I've read.
