I'm not sure where they get the idea that 20mics is a "dose". Microdose perhaps, but I've always been under the impression a modern "dose" of acid is 100mics, so the premise that they're less than in the 60s etc. still holds.

I used to sell acid in the 90's and I couldn't even guess at the actual content of LSD per hit we were selling. Every sheet or vial was different, and if my dealer was ever telling me "X micrograms" I probably ignored it the same way I ignored every drug dealer's marketing pitch. For us, it came down to understanding the amount of this particular acid needed for a trip. I've taken 5+ hits at a time that were weaker than single hits from different origins.
Ah, yes, the ol "it was just one tab, but it's very strong/pure."
