    The bulging eyes. The raving. The lies.
    And Leary laughs the program controller off the stage.
    And what happened in the end? The government didn’t stop LSD. The fad just burned itself out. All that is left is a remnant subculture.

    Eric,
    The video has been removed from your linked post due to terms of use violation.
    I wonder how long mine will last.

    Let me add that I picked up the Leary video because of a YouTube recommendation.

    Hah!
    Pretty soon much of our history will be removed due to terms of use violations.
