hm, that's interesting....but it wasn't exactly the effect on dreaming that i meant...rather, that the atropine has psychoactive effects (on humans, at least), that result in a strange kind of mental-state where you hallucinate, but are unable to determine that you are hallucinating (unlike most psychedelics containing psilocybin, lsa, dmt, etc, where you KNOW something otherworldly is happening). unfortunately, it seems that as a result of this inability to tell the difference between reality and your imagination, many people end up with bruises, broken limbs, arrested, in the ICU or dead. i just wonder if this changed brain functioning is at all similar to what happens during a non-lucid dream, and if there is maybe some sort of connection between specific neuro-transmitters and becoming lucid. i feel like i'm rambling..
