And to think Hicks was a comedian by trade. You can see him perform these bits in an HBO special he did just a couple years before he died. I can't find it on Amazon, so you may have to investigate some alternate means of acquisition. But it's worth it. His whole catalog of CDs is worth it, IMO.

Getting back on the subject, though, that's definitely some food for thought. I'm surprised the holographic paradigm meme hasn't propogated, since the aquarium analogy is quite accessible. In all of my reading of ghost stories and other phenomena, I've never come across the term, or even the idea behind it. I was also aware of the LSD research, but only exposed to the popularized, pulp sci-fi version. I'll have to check that out in depth.

As to the author of the piece, it was posted anonymously to a BBS back in 1991, and he or she has never come forward, despite seven Google pages still listing the title of the article.
