Wishful Waster

Today, I have played with poppers.

"Warning: iso-amyl nitrite is a potent heart stimulant - avoid inhalation of the vapour."

It was only after reading this article that I realised that the chemical used in the reaction I carried out today is identical to that used in poppers. Pfft, who needs to go out to experience the student life? I can get all the sex, drugs and rock & roll I need in the laboratory...

Who ever said chemistry was rubbish, eh?! ;o)
