By Albert Hoffman, a Swiss chemist who was experimenting with
extracts of ergot fungus and invented:

LYSERGIC ACID DIETHLAMIDE (LSD in German)
(Lyserge Saurge Diethlamide).

He said he began to experience a "not unpleasant state of drunkenness" and had to stop working because he could not concentrate any longer. He went home and later felt that he had left his body and saw it lying on the sofa, dead, and heard his soul floating around the room moaning...:crazy:

If they could've spiked Hitler's apple juice with that....
