Nothing to add on the human topic, but on the Mayan chocolate tangent I would suggest that the sacred drink probably also contained certain mushrooms whose effect is in fact enhanced by combination with chocolate.

John Houghton - Legal molassas, bought in anticipation of a coming market shift. It wasn't going to become as hard to get as some drug precursors are now, but the value was going to jump.

Madeleine, after downloading Fontographer off the Greek ftp site and finding that it was fun to play with, I actually paid for it. I don't remember if the discount I scammed thru a distributor friend was "student" or "upgrade" but either way it isn't fair to call my copy a bootleg. Anyway, the only thing that ever got set in Lout is the card I pass out to people who I meet who are interested in my blog.

Keith, are you being cute, or are by some odd chance unaware of the typographical significance of "dingbat"?

Others beat me to mentioning the Boston molasses spill, but there is an interesting detail to that incident I've rarely seen discussed. There is some speculation that the molasses was intended for use in the production of bootleg rum.
