As Robert Beverly noted about soldiers in Jamestown, Virginia who accidentally
ate Datura stramonium in their salad (hence "Jamestown weed" then "jimsonweed"):

And some of them ate plentifully of it, the effect of which was a
very pleasant Comedy; for they turned natural Fools upon it for
several Days. One would blow a Feather in the Air; another would
dart straws at it with much fury; and another stark naked was
sitting up in a Corner, like a Monkey grinning and making Mows at
them; a Fourth would fondly kiss and paw his Companions, and sneer
in their Faces with a Countenance more antik than any in a Dutch
Droll.

Thanks for the link, btw. I've been interested in the effects ever since
we had a case similar to the Ohio case out here.

I also found this today: http://www.erowid.org/experiences/exp.php?ID=1823

Ah, for the good ol' days of nutmeg and Heavenly Blue morning glories.
