[edit] Alice D. Millionaire
The article states that the song Alice D. Millionaire is about his 1967 bust, although the song was written and played in 1966. Either his bust was in 1966 or the song refers to his earlier bust. 09:25, 19 January 2007 (CET) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.16.233.102 (talk) 08:25, 19 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Grateful Dead box
Is it really necessary to have about a third of this article taken up by a Grateful Dead box? Nareek 01:44, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
- It isn't neccessary or appropriate; Owsley was employed by the GD but was not a member of the band nor was he associated with a majority of the items in the GD box. I replaced it with a more succinct and appropriate 'See Also' section. I hope people feel free to add to that section as appropriate and not revert to the box template. If there were a 'Drug Subculture' box template that would indeed be appropriate, but the GD box is not truly encyclopedic because it gives a false impression of the nature of the association.

In his book "The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test" Tom Wolfe refers to Owsley as The "White Rabbit". This might help understanding the Jefferson Airplane's song
