This looks to be a mighty swell thing to check out . Not for little ol me on the left hand side of the big pond, but for y'all near there...

From the online article HERE:

''The weird and fascinating world of mind-altering plants is the subject of an exhibition that opens today at Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. As a reader of the Telegraph, you are, of course, an upright citizen – not at all the kind of person who would have any doings with mind-altering substances ''

I don't know about you, but i don't read the telegraph myself too often...
