But of course. It's not as if millions of lives around the world have
been saved by the synthetic compound Tamiflu, not that every year people
are killed by toxic mushrooms, spiders, snakes and jellyfish.
In fact, you know what? Mankind has spent decades trying to perfect more
and more powerful nerve toxins. And after years of creating such
deliberately poisonous artificial chemicals, the most toxic nerve poison
known to man is /still/ 100% natural. It's called botox. It isn't even
hard to find.
