Mendoza was as good as his word. Later that afternoon he took Wasson to his house where they gathered some of the mushrooms. By evening Mendoza had spoken to the famous curandera Maria Sabina, telling her without further explanation that she should serve Wasson, who then went with New York fashion photographer friend Allan Richardson to a mushroom ceremony.

Polyphenylene ether, PPE. Poly(2,6-dimethyl-l,4-phenylene ether), PPE, was invented by Allan Stuart Hay in 1959 [Hay, 1962, 1967]. The PPE homopolymer was introduced by General Electric Co., GEC, in 1964. A year later Westlake Plastics Co. started production of A/p/ia/ xTM 400, extruded rods, sheets and tubing of PPE. The same year Richardson Co. put miscible blends of PPE with crystal PS on the market. In spite of the PPE/PS miscibility, the single-phase system was not a commercial success. In mid-1966 GEC introduced WoryZ family of PPE blends with HIPS [Boldebuck, 1960 Cizek, 1968].
