 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.
