	The DSN Interview with Dr. Richard Alpert
		With Harvard colleague Timothy Leary, Alpert was a guiding force in the psychedelic movement of the early 1960s, eventually winning censure and dismissal from the university with Leary as a result of the sheer fervency of their psychedelic zeal--and their practice of doling out psilocybin and LSD to curious undergraduates.
		Alpert (He told me that he favors his given name again after nearly a decade and a half on the "holy man circuit" as Ram Dass) was a most engaging subject throughout the interview.
		Alpert laughed and admitted that he gets the same sort of treatment from people whenever he implies that some days are good days, yes, even for holy men, and some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.

		ALPERT: I think it had something to do with the sentence, because it kind of fit into the message that we tried to give the jury that she almost got away with this.
		ALPERT: I think this case was about a terrible fact pattern and trying to see if it would fit in our justice system, trying to give a jury a range of punishment where they could feel that justice was done.
