It's all fake, although as a former conspiracy theory buff (ah, those were good days in high school), I'm always glad to see new people hear about it. 8)

i mean it is hard to believe but i think that it could be a possibilty at least as for a government research tool, whether or not it made people go crazy is a little hard to swallow. I find it the whole story extremely entertaining tho!

As is the case with most conspiracies, I think that if we were to suddenly find out the whole story, it'd be a lot less cool. The truth in this story probably isn't anything amazing.
