jakiebum is right. this is a tribute to Owsley, the famed creator of the sunshine acid in the late 1960s. read Wolfe's Electric Cool Aid Acid Test to learn a little more about Owsley and the dayglow freaks.
I wouldn't call it a tribute. To me it comes off as a sardonic look at him. JMO
@pakalolo Tom Wolfe does offer a great take on this era. I also recommend "Acid Dreams" which can be read for free here:
