Just a sidenote on Jimson weed; while it is toxic to take internally, it
was at one time used very effectively to alleviate the symptoms of
asthma and/or bronchial spasms. It was the principle ingredient of
"Asthma Powders" widely used in the last century (the other ingredient
being saltpeter) and the dried leaves of the plant have been smoked in
combination with other plants by native americans for many centuries
without any hallucinogenic effects.
