 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.
