[CQ-Contest] Contest miracle drug

[ted demopoulos]

I remember in College someone in Organic Chemistry lab synthesized Pimolene 
(spelling?), which which supposedly used by fighter pilots in WW 2. It kept 
people awake and alert, without being nervous or wired, for 2-3 days. Never 
tried it myself.


I suppose stimulants are OK, but what can be more stimulating than a DX 
contest?
