1. For some reason, I've always thought and spoke of him as "Stanley Owlsley".
.
.
.
Rolling Stone Magazine did an interview piece with him about 10-20 years ago and
mentioned whereas Timothy Leary was known as "The Wizard", Owlsley was known
as "The Alchemist".
.
.
I think he was involved in the airdrop of perhaps tens or hundreds of thousands of
hits of acid over Shea Stadium during a Dead show.
.
.
The interviewer eventually asked him if he were still dabbling in the same art... and
Owlsley just smiled cryptically and neither confirmed nor denied.

RIP Stanley.
