Well, I've had an experience in my life which I cannot explain by
anything other than either 'spiritual' phenomena or as a matter of being
toyed with by the universe's sysop. Despite that one time occurence (no,
I was not under the influence whatsoever), all I can ascribe it to
materially is some sort of stress induced hypnogogic hallucination with
tactile features. I've had no recurrences by which to further test it,
however from that one occurence, it seemed that there was some sort of
intelligence behind it due to a test I did perform on it at the time.
Whether it was my own subconcious that I was testing or not I cannot
say. If people want to talk about it, please let me know, but I
generally don't talk about it much for obvious reasons. Oh, I am
generally atheistic.
