Drug reference
[edit]The article originally stated that LSD was not a reference to the drug of the same name, and that there was no indication in the lyrics, but I've removed this--"Sometimes you can smell the green when your mind is feeling fine" is pretty clear. 71.178.57.172 03:05, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
- Not only does that allude to smelling colors and other such sense mismatches that occur during hallucinations, but it could also be a marijuana reference simultaneously :P --insertwackynamehere 00:22, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Changing "a homage ... also to LSD ..." to "a homage ... (some believe) to LSD ...". It might be a reference to the drug, but that's just speculation. Needs a reference. Maybe there's an interview of the songwriter(s) that mentions it, for example. I'll see if I can scare something up some time. Gmj (talk) 23:51, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Chicagoans don't call Lake Shore Drive LSD, sorry.
[edit]It doesn't even make sense to abbreviate "Lake Shore Drive" when giving directions, as this article stated up to today. "Lake Shore Drive" is three syllables. "LSD" is three syllables. It's not faster or more clear to say it that way. Which is why we don't. --209.201.114.50 (talk) 21:12, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
I lived in Chicago for a short time and I DID see the abbreviation used on news programs. For what that's worth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 23.119.101.19 (talk) 02:34, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
