[ExI] more beta, not less

[William Flynn Wallace]

Imagine, for instance, a stimulant that just boosts, say,
aural perception or even just an aspect of aural perception. My guess
current stimulants do affect specific stuff but in a haphazard fashion
-- stimulating some stuff and not others, but not because there was a
specific target in mind from the 'maker' or user.   spike

First, Cialis et al is not a stimulant.  Just the opposite.  It relaxes
muscles around the base (no muscles in the penis;  sorry guys, exercise
will not enlarge it - that could be done, though, I think in the future
redesign of humans) and blood vessels allowing more blood in the penis.
Second, if you want enhanced audio perception, the answer is pot.  Aside
from thinking that the piece you are listening to is more beautiful than
you ever imagined, you will hear every note clearly because you are really
getting into what you are doing.  Same effects when you eat - cause of the
munchies - tastes wonderful.  This is at a level where you are not even
high; just slightly buzzed.  Also, as you know, neither a stimulant nor a
depressant.  Long ago I tried to coin a term for it but apparently my
students didn't get the job done.  Sidewayzer.
