Conspiracy theory nuttersI keep getting collared by a bloke who says that the war in Afghanistan is a cover for our Illuminati Freemason Shapeshifting Lizard masters to corner the market in mind-bending drugs. "It's true," he says, "I heard it on TalkSport". Tell us your stories of encounters with tinfoil hatters.
Thanks to Davros' Granddad

without meaning any disrespect to Rakkyor her excellent post, I feel the need to point out that the pages of b3ta's QOTW are only slightly above Wikipedia on the spectrum of reliable sources of information, so if it's at all important, alternative confirmation should probably be sought...

You are ABSOLUTELY correctas I REALLY don't want to be quoted as an expert. I am not a doctor nor do I play one on TV. I should also make that clear.
However the source for that was a colleague in drug discovery and it had better be bloody close to accurate as it's in the presentation i'm giving in 2 days!
i do however applaud anyone who invoked "citation needed" though with anything!

It's OK!I only needed something vaguely plausible - for illustrative purposes. I didn't want to say "hundreds of pounds" and look like an idiot. I went with $900,000,000 and got some sensible looking nods from the audience (who probably weren't listening anyway).
