 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.
