Shrinks and LSD

[matthew cissell]

So I guess you folks know that before Kesey or Timothy L got on the
bus, there were some Hollywood people getting thier heads cleared with
LSD. This was thanks to a Dr Oscar Janiger. Cary Grant got turned on
because his gal Betsy was seeing the good Doc.

  Does anyone know if anything has been written in the Pynchon
criticism suggesting a link between the real life Dr Doses and the
CL49 Dr Hilarious.

(Apparently there is a connection - Edgewood Arsenal experiments -
between MKULTRA and its LSD experiments and some of the Nazi
scientists who were brought over by Paperclip.)

Apparently Cary was rather public about his LSD use since it wasn't
illegal until later. Could TP have know about the Dr.s and their
treatments or experiments?
