...restrictions requires some internal debate. Having decided that drugs were worth it, the students interviewed took particular pains to describe drug-induced sensations which defy verbal cliches. To the majority, pot manifests itself through dizzy spells and then painful awakenings; it made all of them thirsty and many nauseous. In addition there is an intense distortion of the sense of time which can be seen by extrordinary gaps in "high" convesations. The time lag does not, however, interrupt the continuity of thought...
...ladies imbibe mineral water laced with gin. Rodgers' girl friend (Charlotte Rampling) is a pert socialite making her criminal debut as the temptress assigned to dazzle a lieutenant of the armed guards, though much of her wickedness is spent in murdering the Queen's English with such nauseous effusions as "how rave-making" or "supremo!"

Mimed in outrageously funny fashion by Alan Arkin, Harry is so sick that he goes momentarily rigid with paralysis and then turns deaf, blind and mute. Milt prates of the good things in life...
...started last Christmas," he says. "I had heard Silent Night thousands of times, and all that happiness made me nauseous. I couldn't stand the avalanche of goodness." Instead of just being sick, Hollis had his thoughts-for-the-day printed up as stickers and advertised them. He got 93 orders. Since then his ads, every other week, have sold about 2,000 sets of sick stickers, with orders coming in from as far away as Brazil...
