Yep. When I called the CIA researchers "quacks" I did so for a reason: when tox testing, it is customary to start with a minimal dose then increase it progressively until it exhibits a measurable effect, not start with a huge overdose! 297mg is one thousand times the typical dose sold for black market acid in the mid-1960s, per wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysergic_acid_diethylamide#Dosage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysergic_acid_diethylamide#Dos... (As an elephant weighs on the order of 20-50 times as much as a human, administering a thousand times a typical human dose was ... inadvisable to say the least.)
