<p><b>New page</b></p><div>I'm not sure if this should be an annotation or not but roundworld equivelents of ''...Herbs'' may include such items as St Johns Wort and Wormwood --[[User:Megahurts|Megahurts]] 12:44, 16 March 2010 (UTC)<br />

My suspicion is that "herbs" in a Granny Weatherwax context might be those to which a goodly cachet of myth and folklore attaches on Roundworld. For instance, take<br />
<br />
*mandrake, mandragora: said to emit a scream in the high untrasonic if uprooted. This is a myth on Roundworld - but we know it to be truth on Discworld. (ss [[thaumaturgists|here]].<br />
<br />
*belladonna consciousness-alterer: in cocktail with atropine, thought to be at the heart of the "witches can fly!" cultural myth.<br />
<br />
*atropine - neuroagent<br />
<br />
*datura root - possibly more a voodoo thing, but a potent consciousness-alterer<br />
<br />
*hemlock - in very small doses, a heart stimulant<br />
<br />
Of course ''...herbs'' is also RW slang for Canabis, which - leaving political discussion aside - is also known to help relieve pain in MS sufferers. --[[User:Megahurts|Megahurts]] 08:31, 17 March 2010 (UTC)</div>Osiris
