Somehow, I mangaged to miss all that.  The "2000 or so" is measured by the
number of different
(calendar, or "real time" ) days that I ingested said sacrament;  however, I
NEVER managed to 
achieve the interesting hallucinations and releases from control that so
many others have reported.
What I experienced was mainly an INTENSE CLARITY, a perception of the
interrelatedness of everything, and an ability to multitask that I wish I
had the rest of the time.
Oh, well -- different streaks for different freaks.
