...from the Harvard faculty last spring after receiving strong criticism for his freewheeling research in the use of LSD and psilocybin, gave the drugs to 69 "fulltime religious professionals," found that three out of four had "intense mystico-religious reactions, and more than half claimed that they had the deepest spiritual experience of their life...
...number 2771. As a consequence, the Czar's agents and half the police of Europe were looking for at least 2,770 conspirators. When Nechaev was extradited from Switzerland, he was treated as the head of a huge conspiracy. Shackled, in solitary confinement in Peter-Paul's deepest dungeon, Nechaev was able to convert his guards to the revolution; he even convinced them that he had engineered the assassination of Czar Alexander...

Though proof against water pressure in the deepest ocean, Trieste has feeble propulsion. She can creep only four or five miles at about 1.4 m.p.h.; during the 45 minutes that it will take Trieste Skipper Lieut. Commander Donald L. Keach to guide his strange craft to the bottom, unexpected currents may carry her out of sight...
