I read a book decades ago that said Finland ran out of wheat in WW1. That resulted in many mentally ill people becoming normal, who were then released from mental institutions.
Strange..."there must be something in the water" as the saying goes, or I guess the wheat in this case?!
Fallen though our earth may be, I don't like the idea of dismissing one of God's provisions for mankind's sustenance outright.

Ok, historical facts. Partial facts are dangerous.

It as MORE likely they were released because the quality and quantity of food got better. The lack of good food meant they had to eat some pretty crappy stuff like ergot infested rye.
