I'm not saying the "one milligram" number is to be believed. I'm saying they had a large pill, packed with a curious amount of powder, which a handful of people shared. Sugar cubes are a commonly used substrate. I could readily imagine someone in the 1960's, somewhere along the supply chain having a quantity of prepared sugar cubes looking dubious after changing hands too many times, and repackaging them one-by-one into capsules (maybe packing more than one cube into a single large capsule), with a pestle and mortar, and topping them off with regular powdered sugar. I think you're expecting other people to operate with a degree of precision and mistrust, neither of which stacks up against the way people really operate on the ground.

You may explain it this way quite easily. But frankly, there’s a standard, which is a tab. It’s small, dry so can be stored for extended periods of time, and the chance it contains anything but acid is incredibly small, as anything comparable would require vastly larger volumes. Point being: if you made a decision to take a dodgy-looking pill in the middle of nowhere, don’t go on talking about the fact that you’ve exprienced something worthy. You’ve got a bad taste and noone wants to listen about that.
