This may be old news, although the actual research paper only came out last month, but it is now possible to produce  hydr0c0d0ne using genetically altered yeast. It will be a while before the process is refined enough to be effective, as the article below notes " it would take 4,400 gallons of bioengineered yeast to produce a single dose of pain relief."

But in 20 years time?

Yea I read this a while back. Although I didn't realize such a quick turn around lol. Doesn't sound very viable. More like a neat research paper for a college student.

 
There's a lot of playing with yeast (and other bacteria) genetics to hopefully "vat grow" lots of chemicals.  It has huge potential.  Truthfully I'd see the trend in healthcare devising a non-dependence forming pain relief chemical before this even is viable.  In some sense that would be a great day, but it will also have clear negatives for many.  Spinal simulators are great, if you can afford them, if they help your situation, and if they treat the overall suffering and not just the pain.

Anywho, that was a little OT.

  8. D @ drdrizzy13: He is actually surprising me. I was pissed when they drafted him. Shaueder threw for 360+ yds and 4 tds I was reading. I was kind of wanting Sanders but it's probably a mess that comes with it.
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood it’s alright bro we’ll sink then mothah lovin buccaneers …hopefully lol

  12. D @ drdrizzy13: @Layne_Cobain Not gonna lie I was hating on Tyler Shough for a minute but he made some damn nice throws against the Panthers!
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood so dissapointing man led whole game and then can’t get some first downs to kill some clock and a stupid roughing penalty puts them in easy fg territory…oh well gotta move on I guess gonna have to sweep the bucs there’s other ways in but that’s the most straightforward
  14. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Looking great at halftime. Hope you're having a good tme.
