 i   had  this   idea   that  you   could 
  construct reality checks (as for lucid  
 dreaming, where you'd  learn  this habit 
 of trying  to sneakily  break the  rules 
 of   causality  or   physics,   such  as 
 flipping a  light  switch to  see  if it 
 actually  turns  off  the   lights,   or 
 trying   to  get  your  hands  to  phase 
 together. the thought being that if  any 
 of the  "checks" actually  worked, you'd 
 know   you  were  dreaming)  for  datura 
                  plants.                 
                                          
 i thought, you  could  get  in the habit 
 of throwing things on  the  ground, like 
    pens. meant to portray cigarettes,    
 because  everyone who does datura smokes 
 cigarettes.  (they  in fact aren't,  and 
 so  sooner   or   later  the  cigarettes 
 disappear, and they  search the  ground, 
 but nothing's there.)  throwing pens  on 
 the ground  and picking  them  back  up. 
 and be really  concerned if they weren't 
               to be there.               
                                          
 this  is  probably  not  how  deliriants 
 work.   but   i    had   the    thought.
