I dont really see the need to have my parents consult whoever is in charge.... After all, it is just a fly fishing forum and I can realistically do whatever I want on the internet.

You are right, Suedehead. The only parts of the Bible I like are the above, and "Thou shalt not KILL." What more does anyone need?

Anyway...the reason I posted was because I think it would be good to have some understanding of how the philosophers stone works. Then you could make decisions about how to use it, eg should you give it to a 13 year old, or likewise an 80 year old. Should it be taken as one one dose or split into smaller doses over time etc.

Glad you got some good responses...what about the health reasons for avoiding them? Do you have enough of those or would you like more?
