Fictional!  Your not a disciple of that Drexlerian gobbledygook, are you?

But a synthetic aldehyde dehydrogenase that isn't easily denatured by low pHs should be achievable. 

In the meantime, I'll stick with my Dawn 808...
Wha?   It's already available in the US!

Hmm... wonder if it's in Canada yet?  Might need to set up a street stall near the bar on the weekends....
Sort of - Canadian and German patents are in place.

Where are nanobots when one needs them? They should be perfect in sorting out the unwanted molecules.

Maxwell's demons are on strike, and the nanobots won't cross the picket line.

I think the wind turbines in Pincher Creek are actually Maxwell's Demon Machines - how else does one explain both chinooks and Alberta clippers?

[Sibling Lambicus the Toluous]

Maybe they're the same temperature, but we think of them as "warm" and they think of them as "cold".  It could just be a matter of point of view.

Pincher Creek also holds the record for fastest rate of temperature change in Canada.... in the neighbourhood of -20^oC to +20^oC in one hour.  I've seen Calgary do that, but it took 12-15 hours.

question: would putting vodka on the rocks instead of water in a sauna make you drunk, dead, or the same?

last _{innocent question} post

[Swatopluk]

Could yield an explosive mixture if overdone. The alcohol would evaporate faster and is highly flammable. In the right mixture with air it could go booooom!
On the other hand alcohol is an irritant. You'd probably run out of the room pretty fast to get the bite out of your eyes and mucous membranes (imagine pouring hot aftershave on your face after shaving vigorously).

question: would putting vodka on the rocks instead of water in a sauna make you drunk, dead, or the same?

You shouldn't really be drinking anything in a sauna, especially vodka, even if it's on the rocks.  It will dehydrate you even more.

[Swatopluk]

To precify my above poster : not drinking anything of course means nothing alcoholic or otherwise diuretic (about everything with caffeine falls into that category).

Last _{have an IV ready} Post

[Sibling Lambicus the Toluous]

You also should not drink juices or soft drinks in the sauna, because if you spill them, you can make things sticky.

Last _{if I get the IV, can I keep my coffee?}  Post

[Aggie]

Vapourising alcohol will work in theory, but probably damage your lungs.  Ditto for caffeine.

Last _{You can keep your coffee, but it's going in via enema.  Beer goes in the catheter - it's American} Post

[Sibling Lambicus the Toluous]

I guess American beer going in that way would be one of those "circle of life" things, eh?  Going back from whence it came and all that?

Oh, Swato... thanks for supplying a word I was looking for in reference to Everclear - fusel.

Not common in English that I've heard, but will charcoal take it out?
