The city of Cupertino is known today as Computer's headquarters, but many years ago the city was named in honor of St. José de , a Franciscan known for being "remarkably un-clever" and a "nuisance" with a "bad temper," but who gained fame based on stories of his miracles, including levitation. In retrospect, these "miracles" are now believed to have been hallucinations due to ergot poisoning from rye bread (aka, 'Saint Anthony's Fire'). Ergot is chemically similar to LSD.
