Apparantly not as good as the real thing. Getting OT from the Onc. cebolleta...what a whacked site, morning glory seeds have many physical side effects, not a purely cerebral effect. Might as well get atropine inebriation from Datura or Brugmannsia, the margin for error is very slim. You'd still get at least an upset stomach. I'll stick with Sally. Not a real hallucinogen, at least in non-distilled form.
