When you say "those" are you referring to bad acid trips? (Don't tell me you've never had one!) I'll grant, however, that bad trips seem to occur much more on 'cid than on natural substances. But I'll also point out that its on the bad trips where the "Emporer's New Clothes" are most obviously yanked away, and we SEE that all the stuff we thought held us together was more or less arbitrary or self-defeating. Unfortunately, some folks are so dependent on those illusions that they can not handle their removal, even for 4-8 hours or so, so they freak.Except that there are so few of those no one has ever been able to quantify/qualify them, so we don't know what that really consists of.

PS: It was along these lines that my comparison of a bad trip to 9/11 was meant.
