One of his closest friends was one of his classmates, a fellow named Rick Watson, who was another super genius weirdo. And Rick Watson was a chemist, and he was actually an amateur chemist, but he had some connections with the Stanford Research Institute. And the Stanford Research Institute was working with DMT, as it turned out at that time.

Good question. Nobody knows. But a lot of the people at the Stanford Research Institute were interested in psychedelics. They were doing some wacky stuff. And you know, in the 60s, the whole government program with MKUltra and all that was all in full swing.

Yeah, that's right. And at the time, psychedelics were just this thing that, you know, the government felt that they needed to know about. So there were secret ops programs at the Stanford Research Institute.

Yeah, yeah. One of Terence's other good friends, a friend of this fellow Rick Watson, the chemist, another good friend of his was a guy named John Parker, and he was another, you know, amazing person. And he was the son of a big mucky muck at the NASA Ames Research Center, which was in Mountain View next to Palo Alto, next to Los Altos. And John Parker Sr.

was the head of chemical operations at NASA Ames Research Center. So he was doing a lot of research on material science. He was looking into materials to make spacecraft out of that were fire-resistant and all that. But because he was a very, very peculiar person, shall we put it that way, he had side interests, and side interests included psychedelics.
