That was one of the books I read trying to make sense of my own experiences. I also went to visit Lilly at Esalen and later went to work for him on the dolphin project Janus. His freaky experiences were ketamine induced. I asked him why he would take such a drug given that it created such nightmarish experiences. He explained that he felt a duty to combat the evil he discovered while on ketamine. He could not very well just look the other way. His wife Tony told me some stories about the troubles John got himself into freaking out such as one time on a plane when he demanded to talk to the president to warn him about invaders from another dimension. She and I hit it off well. She told me that if I ever freaked out again, I could deal with people without scaring them simply by nodding at whatever they said. There was no need for words.

And oh yes, each day I entertain myself guessing the right elevator out of 5 available and watching the faint milky-bluish glow around the heads of my colleagues at our occasional meetings. This week my grandmother’s partner suddenly died (in Russia) — a night before I’ve had disturbing dream about dying distant friend and decided to call home.

I read a book years ago, I think it was by Cleave Baxter on a similar topic. That book really intrigued me. I have always wanted to do the experiments myself to determine if it was a hoax. I am about 75% certain there is some sort of weak psychic link between living things. He described experiments where plants reacted to brine shrimp being killed.
