And so, there are a few questions that come to mind, right?

It's like, well,

These are just normal people.

They're not biochemists.

They couldn't tell you how psychedelics act on the brain.

So it's not like they're... rolling their eyes back and going in and trying to... affect certain enzymes or whatever.

They have no idea.

And yet, they are reporting the same, not just effect, but magnitude of effect as matches the other people.

What the hell is going on?

I don't know.

I have no idea.

But, like, you don't have to go very far to get into really terra incognita, like, unknown, there be dragons, waters.

It's actually very easy.

You don't have to get out into remote viewing or whatever, even though, again, I'm very, like, interested in that stuff.

But it's, like...

just look at the placebo effect, which gets... Understandably, right?

Because people are trying to assess something, and that is the intervention in some of the RCTs that I fund, let's just say.

But the fact that there are commonly people who produce the same effect, same magnitude of effect with a sugar pill or placebo or a sham surgery is incredible.

Incredibly strange.

Yeah.
