- nradov 15y agoSome have suggested adding trace amounts of lithium to drinking water in order to reduce depression and suicide. I don't think that's necessarily a good idea, but there is a scientific basis for it. http://bjp.rcpsych.org/content/194/5/464.abstract http://bjp.rcpsych.org/content/194/5/464.abstract
- burgerbrain 15y agoOh, I don't doubt that it would be possible to do it. I'm just saying that it's pretty much one of the canonical "Bad Ideas" (tm) from modern fiction. It ranks right up there with "stop talking about sharks, you're scaring away the tourists" and "lets split up so we can cover more ground".
