- It doesn't *abort* the trip, I didn't say it did. It does calm down
- someone who is in a drug-induced panic, tho I can't prove this beyond
- personal experience. My reference for this information is Robert Anton
- Wilson in 'Sex and Drugs', and a book by Abbie Hoffman that I can't recall

- As for them being similar, I've personally seen them both have the same
