Basically, smelling something that just ain't there. It seems little wonder to me, that having a brain disorder which affects, among other things, a section of the brain through which all our external senses pass, and doctoring ourselves with brain-altering substances, that *anyone* could doubt that we occasionally experience phantoms of the senses. But they do. Jim
