Notability

edit

I removed the notability tag from this stub. Hoyt is without doubt a notable person. She was one of Charles' Manson's gang and was a major character in just about every book, article and history that has attempted to tell the story of the Manson murders. --Salimfadhley (talk) 22:30, 21 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

LSD-laced hamburger?

edit

There's a 'clarification needed' tag but it really needs a citation too. LSD is a notoriously fragile molecule, and breaks down even in tap water due to the chlorine content. It can only really be dissolved safely in cold to room temperature *distilled* water, so it seems unlikely that lacing a freshly-ordered hamburger, with all its hot/warm fats and water content, would produce any kind of effect. I may be completely off the mark with this though, so if anyone has a good citation that this happened, by all means explain it to me. Otherwise I'll remove that part Devgirl (talk) 21:23, 30 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

I note that the attempted murder was not successful. The stability speculation is interesting, but it sounds like it wouldn't have to survive for very long, and not all parts of a burger are hot. Perhaps best to try searching for a citation. Klbrain (talk) 09:40, 7 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
