Well, it looks like there is nothing here for me. I m planning to fly back to Bogota." "Thank God," thought I. 

Lying in our hammocks, we set out to meditate our way into hyperspace. In my mind s eye, I could see myself at La Chorrera and then going down the trail to El Encanto, up the river to Leguizamo and back to Bogota, back to Canada. At each point I would meet the people that I had lived my life with and I would say, "We got it I m sorry. I hope I didn t offend you too much back in 3-D. It s all over now. Just all over."... 

Dave volunteered to go on the airplane—the decision was made almost at a moment s notice. He would reach our supplies and single-handedly undertake to have them and himself shipped up the Rio Putumayo and then back to Bogota. We would meet him back there when and if we got out by some means not yet clear. A bag was hastily packed. The... 

By the time we reached Bogota, Dennis had almost completely returned to normal, lending weight to the idea that some form of temporary chemical imbalance had been responsible for his reaction rather than the emergence of a chronically unbalanced personality structure. He was very shaky and very bummed by any mention of fourthdimensional superconducting bonds, ayahuasca, or shamanism. He said, "Look, I have had it." He had, too. 

On the twentieth of March, there was general agreement that Dennis was totally back with us. It was an occasion of great happiness and we celebrated at one of Bogota s finest restaurants. It was an immense accomplishment to have been able to allow the reversal to work itself out without the aggravating influence of modem mental health care procedures. The ordeal in the wilderness that all shamans must face had been endured. A step on the path to knowledge had been taken. 

The end of March was mostly spent in Bogota, a dreary time. The urban frenzy of a teeming, modem city did not rest lightly on our jungle-sensitive perceptions. Dennis seemed quite normal, though weakened and sobered. There were no messages from Dave, and Vanessa finally returned to the States. On the twenty-ninth, Dennis followed her example and flew to Colorado. I insisted that Ev and I go to southern Colombia so that I could have some time to reflect. This we did. I reviewed the whole incident at La...

The de Elhuyar brothers afterward went to America and in 1788 Fausto became Director of Mines of Mexico. Don Juan Jos6 died in Bogota, Colombia, but at the outbreak of the Revolution Don Fausto returned to Spain. His reason for leaving Mexico may be inferred from the note found at the end of one of Andrbs del Rio s papers ... 

Alexander von Humboldt stated in 1826 that platinum has not yet been discovered north of the isthmus of Panama on the North American continent. Platina in grains is found only in two places in the known world, that is to say, in Choco, a province in the kingdom of New Granada, and near the coasts of the Southern Sea in the province of Barbacoas between the second and sixth degrees of north latitude.. . . The placers which at present yield platina are located south of the threshold (umbral) which separates the headwaters of the Rio Atrato from those of the Rio San Juan.. .. It is absolutely false that platinum has ever been found near Cartagena, at Santa Fe de Bogota, on islands of Puerto Rico or the Barbadoes, or in Peru, even though these localities have been mentioned in excellent and well-known works. .
