Thanks homunculus, that was a very interesting read, with a lot of intriguing links too. I remember reading essays at the Better Living Through Chemistry site back in the mid-90s when I first got on the web, good to see they're still going strong.

Thanks for that link, juju. Definetely explore the links from the article, they're amazing. This body of work calls for a broader post.
