Although that sounds like a pipe-dream, it conveys the unreality that permeates hippiedom, a cult whose mystique derives essentially from the influence of hallucinogenic drugs. The hippies have popularized a new word, psychedelic, which the Random House...
...Surgeon Edward I. Goldsmith have devised a method to remove most of the flukes. The two reasoned that when a patient is cut open to have his spleen removed, he might as well be rid of the flukes at the same time. They designed a system of tubes to pipe the blood from the vein entering the patient's liver, pumping it through a filter, and returning it to a vein in the leg (see diagram).

Two teen-age girls, labeled Marie I and Marie II (Jitka Cerhová and Ivana Karbonová), live like dolls, chattering and giggling, floundering about in their oversized bed, making a shambles of sets and sense. In scenes suffused with unearthly tints and shades, the girls attack each other with scissors and cut off each other...
