The future of hedonism
Apr. 12th, 2006 03:16 pmAccording to a story in today's Guardian, scientists have come up with a brave new way of having hangover-free fun: partial agonists.
According to Professor David Nutt, they have the potential to revolutionise party going: "You could envisage the situation where people are at a party where PAs are taken and before the end of the night, revellers take a long-lasting flumazenil and they immediately sober up, so they can drive home."
For those keeping score, this means: crazy creationist theories, zero; regular scientific theories: billions.
