Several children in Talent, Oregon recently discovered something the ancient Greeks knew. Hemlock is poisonous. A small group of elementary and middle school aged kids were playing at the Talent Middle School on Monday evening when a high school aged brother of one of the children said that the hemlock they found growing on the middle school campus was safe to eat. He called it "wild parsley" and several children followed his lead and ingested some of the plants. The children had been discussing whether or not it was possible to hallucinate or get a "high" from eating hemlock, but were unaware of the real danger involved.
What happened to them?
