- I have a series of several full page articles copied out of the _New York
- Times_ from ~1975 or so that really documents a lot of the CIA/LSD stuff.
- Interestingly, it references Dr. Robert Heath in a couple places, too..
- (i.e., the same researcher who find the great correlation between cannabis
- intake and brain cell atrophy in rhesus monkeys whose claims were pretty
- much dismissed in _Marijuana and Health_).
-
- the article's pretty damn big, so I'm not sure if I want to type it all in,
- but I'll supply a full cite of the article if anyone's interested.
