  1. That's what I was thinking to begin with. I'm glad he talked about DMSO which is what I suspected, but he didn't say it was a carrier chemical. In fact the reason it was banned in the 1970's was precisely because it carried chemicals through the skin. (There was an episode of Quincy on this). I think low were using it to deliver illicit drugs inside themselves.

  2. PLEASE stop using the word "Theory" when you mean "hypothesis." in science, a theory is vetted by predictive, repeatable, and consistent results. A hypothesis is none of these. A hypothesis is only an explanation of observations. A theory is as close to "natural law" as you can get. We don't call them laws anymore because there's always something new to discover. When we find out something new, it can change the way we understand nature. If it does, then we must adjust our theory to encompass our observations of this new thing while still explaining all the rest of science it always explained. Hypotheses are just guesses. And anyone can conjecture and offer a guess.
