Ken Kesey (& Jerry Carcia) are interviewed by Tom Snyder. Then in a clip looking back from an historical retrospective many years later, Kesey describes how LSD enabled him to write such works as the classic "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." For more videos exploring LSD and other sacred sacraments, see http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/52 If you wonder why we call them "sacraments," here's scientific proof that psychedelics facilitate genuine religious experiences: In 2006, researchers at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Medical School, in a controlled double blind study, showed that those administered the active ingredient found in magic mushrooms had profound religious experiences. To see a video and major media reports about that study, see http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/219
