The Skeptic Tank Chairman comments: I have received this material
from "Larry-Jennie", (lar-jen@interaccess.com) on Sat, 11 Jan 1997
at 08:37:59 -0600, under the subject heading "CIA drugs: Urban
legend?" It came in with various other files which I've enumerated
below. There is further materials of the same nature to be found
at ftp://pencil.cs.missouri.edu/pub/mena/ though I have not examined
them.
I have left the text alone however I have reformatted it to make it
easier to read.
