What was the most crazy thing you ever did as an adolescent?
A: Jumped a ride on a van driven by some Presbyterian ministers to take a church group of kids into Santa Fe, New Mexico. Decided to try to score, so wandered into the center of this park next to where the van was parked. Park turned out to be Santa Fe's epicenter for gigolos and drug dealers. Found a dealer, who made us walk two miles from the center of town to his supply-house. Got completely ripped off: twenty bucks for seven heavily shakey spleefs. Ran back just in time to see the van pulling away. Ran and stopped them, and managed to get on the van. Told them I got stuck in Newberry's buying hankerchiefs. Lckily, that was just what my friend told them. Had the hankerchiefs to show. They said that if the stories didn't corroborate, they were going to leave us in Snta Fe. Tough little ministers. Age: 14.
as a college student?
A: Uh, I've led a pretty homework-bound life since I've been in college. I guess the best post-high school thing I did was to sneak into a resort on top of the salt-spring cliffs at Pamukkale, Turkey, and strip off my clothes and go swimming in the *naturally carbonated* hotsprings left behind by the plutocrats of the late Roman Empire. Thousand year-old flagstones ad fallen doric columns. Ah. Memory of warm satisfaction.

Why?
A: When I was a child, I couldn't metabolize calcium or magnesium correctly. As a result, I suffered from a condition called "hyperaesthesia", which made everyone's voices, and even ambient background noises, sound steeped with fury. My visual cortex lost the ability to process depth information, or else inverted it, so everything I looked at seemed really far away. I order to justify the fact that the objects I was seeing still subtended their normal arcs in my visual field, my brain would tell me that they were simultaneously enormous and very far away. One's sense of size i determined by the amount of perspective distortion you detect on familiar objects. Small things have almost no distortion, while big things do. Have you ever played around in a virtual reality simulator? There's a fun thing you can play with if you have control over the focal length of your virtual camera "eye".... if you increase the distortion, then you feel like fly in a room filled with gargantuan furniture. If you dcrease the distortion, then you feel like Alice caught in a miniature dollhouse. When my hyperaesthesia attacks started, I felt like someone was swinging m sense of perspective from oblique to extreme-distortion, making me feel like my body was swelling and contracting, from the size of a mite to giant caught in toy room. And all the while, the noises of the house were yelling at me. I called it the "Big and Loud." Luckily, it stopped when I hit puberty.
