 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.
