   Here's a nifty idea.. start researching cheap, low harm, but powerful drugs again, instead of banning the research. Perhaps some new ways of treating depression using LSD or suchlike will come from the research. Perhaps not. Hard to kn

    I find I'm doing all sorts of work outside my day job, working on various little projects etc. In the past I've stopped doing any of that, and just focused on exercising, socialising and watching TV outside of work. You'll be

    That's exactly what I was going to do. Only reason I even had the keynote on tbh. Am changing jobs and will be using my own laptop from now on, but guess I'll have to dust off eek a bit of life out of my aging MacBook Air - as I r
