5. It causes infections in man and animals -
It's a filamentous fungus found in nature; commonly isolated from soil, plant debris, and indoor air environment. There are about 185 different species, 20 of which are known to cause aspergillosis infection in people with suppressed immune systems - can affect any organ of the body, most commonly the lungs.

4.  Willie came up several times in class
lol.

we started talking about hallucinogenic mushrooms, etc.

say, anyone ever heard of this: soak a piece of bread in orange juice, and then let it grow fungus on it for about a week. eat it and you will trip.....is this true? i think it is just a stoner myth.
