Here is part of an interview with a subject just before LSD is to be administered.
-My husband is an employee here at the D.A. And he told me that they were looking for normal people, and I volunteered.
-I see, do you feel you are normal?
-I hope I’m normal, I think so.
-Well, a little while back you took quite a series of psychological tests, and I can assure you that you are a very stable and well balance person, as a result of the test.
-And, how do you feel about coming here and drinking this strange material?
-Well, I think that’s normal.
Well, I think it’s time for you to have your lisergic acid. Drink this down and we’ll be back after a while and see how you’re doing.
This is a glass of water. Colorless, tasteless, it contains one hundred gamma of LSD 25, one tenth of a milligram, equivalent of one six hundredth of a grain. A ounce of this material will make a 150,000 of such doses. Let us observe the effect some three hours later.
-Now tell me.
-Well I couldn’t, I couldn’t possibly tell you. It, it’s here. Can’t you feel it? This whole room, this, this, everything is in color.
-And, and I can feel the air, I can,I can see it. I can see all the molecules. I mean, I’m part of it. I’m, can’t you see it?
-Im trying.
-Oh it’s just like, like you’re released, or you are free or, I don’t know how I can tell you.
-How do you feel inside?
-Inside? I don’t have an inside.
-Is it all one?
-It would be all one if, if, if you weren’t here and if, if, if nobody else… Yes everything is one. I, you have nothing to do with it, I am one with what I am. I can see everything in color. Everything, you have to see the air. You can’t believe it!
