Animals Get High

Speaking of the internet and how it reveals elements in the collective consciousness of humanity, an old article of mine (2005) is suddenly receiving a large amount of visitors from the website StumbleUpon, an article I wrote about intoxication in the animal kingdom. Another link on the subject I collected comes from Michael Pollan’s “Botany of Desire.”

The fact that animals get high without government, religious or institutional regulation or mediation goes back to the point I was making in my recent response to a City Paper article on psychedelic mushroom use. And while we’re on the subject, no one ever responded to my recent open question: can computers get high? Is that what computer virii are?
