[dfpjkwnl] Better living through chemistry

To encourage eduction in chemistry, consider the policy that any recreational drug is legal so long as you've made it yourself from raw ingredients.

Will it work?  Or will people just blindly follow directions like a recipe for cooking food, with no understanding of what is going on?  Certainly one will probably learn good laboratory technique to achieve replicable and good results.  There will probably be much death and dismemberment (brain damage) from improper preparation.

Out of the many who learn merely to cook (food), a few will become great chefs with ability far beyond home cooking.   Perhaps low yield is still desirable.
