@@dasja9966 it's no joke either, my father had a friend who got some bad mushrooms. he survived, but was never the same after that. if he had more than a couple of drinks Dr Jekle would turn into Mr Hyde. I remember playing a benefit, and he was on lead guitar, he launched into this amazing solo... problem was, we were trying to transition to another song... he was able to COMPLETELY ignore what everyone else was doing and play his own thing, but he only did that after a couple of drinks. fortunately, the audience never noticed and we closed our set with that. another time he showed up at our house at 9pm on a weekday, already drunk, and my father had to kick him out at 11pm, because we both had to work the next morning. He sat in the driveway and howled like a dog...! That was the last straw for my father, and he was no longer welcome.

There is another treatment that can help save the liver. It’s an extract of milk thistle seed called silibinin. The amatoxin poisons you twice. The first time, it goes through the gut and makes you feel like shit. Then it gets absorbed and somehow passed through the gut again (I don’t know the exact mechanism). People who suffer amatoxin poisoning get a temporary reprieve before the second round of symptoms. On the second pass, it gets into the liver, and if you don’t have some top notch kidneys, the liver is probably toast. Silibinin prevents the reuptake of the toxin. Some doctors have had tremendous success with it, saving six out of seven poisoned family members without the need for transplants.

Perhaps you might know the species of dry mushrooms my uncle would buy in a specialty shop here in NYC when I was a child. They were rock hard, strung on a cord and sold by the length. I remember them being quite expensive as they were imported (from Poland I believe) but the texture and flavor when they were rehydrated in various dishes was amazing. If I knew the name I’d certainly locate them as the nostalgia quotient and taste would make it worthwhile.

That 'odd texture to the cap' at 18:22 is a partly healed feast had by a rodent, most likely a chipmunk, perhaps a squirrel. You can see the marks left by the rodents incisors. The mushroom was much younger at the time it was nibbled. I often look for these marks in the wild to determine which mushrooms are part of the local diet. This and which mushrooms are stored in the branches of trees for winter consumption.

While the adults searched for fiddleheads or “fungi du jour” my cousins and I would look for bites taken from toadstools and fairy rings the previous night. The shape would tell us whether a rodent or turtle had been the culprit and a trail of notches often led us directly to the marauding Eastern Box or Wood turtle! The smell of those mossy PA woodlands and the columns of early morning sunlight streaming through the canopy like a cathedral comprise core memories of my early childhood.

Santa Cruz CA has a fungus fair every January, with mushroom experts behind a long table, ready to tell you what's in your basket. One year I had a short, squat mushroom I could not find in my book. The mycologist turned it around in his hand a moment, smelled it, then touched it with the tip of his tongue and handed it back to me with its name. It was a few years ago and my notes are lost, but I was deeply impressed that the peppery-ness on his tongue made him sure of his identification. Another year I brought in a lilac-colored "witch's butter" I found that got the whole table of experts excited. Love the world of mushrooms! Thanks for this great video!

Thanks for the mycology primer, after 3-4 years of doing pretty much everything else (botany, ornithology, chiropterology, entomology, plant galls) I felt a little bad not knowing any mycology and started getting into that as a new year resolution. It's a little overwhelming though, far more exacting for identification than birding or most botany I've ever done. I probably won't ever reach your friend's level of dedication (I work at a molecular biology lab and we're barely just geared as well as he is for gene sequencing haha) but if in the near future I can get down to the family or genus for most specimens and can recognise the easy species you can tell with the naked eye or a hand lens I'll already be very happy. Anyway cheers and good travels out there Tony.
