I would guess that their mystical delusions have been forever (as in not just a year) imprinted on their twisted unconsciousness. How else could they keep coming up with these absurd ideologies and candidates?

Why did you change the title?
'Shrooms are usually found near cow dung; more specifically growing UNDER it. Hiking became a huge thing in my county during the 70s once word about the shrooms became "known".

Sure, sure, spiritual effects last a year. Uh-uh. Usually is indicative of some genuine synaptic wall breaches.

Those are flashbacks professor!

Guess I should amend my post to say that mixture was consumed 32 years ago in wild and crazy days. Thankfully, we survived.
