Hallucinogenic effects of mold

Ellen Warren, reporter for the Chicago Tribune is looking for
information--anecdotal or first-hand would be fine--about
hallucinogenic or lightheaded effects brought on by fungi in library
materials. She is following up on an article in the December 16,
1995 issue of The Lancet by R.J. Hay, which describes this
phenomenon. Her deadline is ASAP.  She prefers phone calls at
312-222-3524, but can be reached elwarr [at] aol__com.

    **** Moderator's comments: The article in question is discussed
    in the Literature column of the Abbey Newsletter, Volume 20,
    Number 1, available in Conservation OnLine:
