Wasn't trying to sound that way, but there were people who did freak
out and do all sorts of strange--and worse--things while under the
influence of LSD; just trying to point out that my experience did not
follow that path.  I knew a lot of people who did acid and still
aren't right today, and yes, they're not right b/c of the drugs they
took and the way they took them.  I snipped the "scary" part that
follows this, and that is what I was trying to point out--we were
reckless, and some of us got through it and some of us didn't.  So in
a way, if I do sound somewhat self-righteous, then it's b/c I survived
relatively intact.
