ZOMBIE

Aidan Hartley in his Wild Life/'Voodoo power' piece for The Speccie, 24 Jan:

"They say you make a person into a zombie by blowing powder from the liver of the puffer fish into the eyes, followed by doses of the hallucinogenic Datura plant."

Say what? The hallucinogenic  Datura plant??

Mater never told me nuffink about that.

We're surrounded by Daturae. What have I been hanging around for?
