--- F R E N D Z of martian --- ACID DREAMS The CIA, LSD and the Sixties Rebellion First chapter of a book about the CIA's use of LSD. Looking for a drug to break down the psychological defences of enemy spies, "marijuana was chosen as the most likely candidate for a speech-inducing agent." CIA operatives determined that heroin and other habit-forming substances "can be useful in reverse because of the stresses produced when they are withdrawn from those who are addicted to their use". http://www.lycaeum.org/drugs/Tryptamines/Lysergic/acid_dreams1.html -- Sent to you via the frendz list at marsbard.com The archive is at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
