Sign me up! PZ Myers Harderkid13, blogging at Pharyngula is conducting an experiment. He’s turning fish into alcoholics:
Over the past few days I have been running my trials for experiment that was oh so controversial last time I blogged about it. I have been placing two groups of six fish into two solutions containing 0.5% ethanol and 0.25% ethanol. […]
I am hoping to observe the development of alcoholic tolerance over the course of this experiment. Other studies that I have found doing this sort of thing exposed the fish to alcohol 24/7.
I’m not sure what the experiment hopes to accomplish, but I can certainly relate to the fish.
Update: It wasn’t PZ Myers, but rather, a guest blogger. Fixed.
