Are you saying that the psycho-active component of Salvia comandeers
the brain-state of the "predator" and sends it on its mission to find
Miss Salvia for purposes of pollination?

Would it be possible to examine the brain state of an insect "under
the influence" to verify this somehow? Brilliant theory....maybe this
somehow relates to the appearance of the mysterious female in Salvia-
induced dysphoria in humans?


Hmmmmmmmmm
