   I'm not a doctor. But I nearly died once. And I've used a few   
   recreational drugs as well as prescribed morphine.   
      
   But my research skills are second to none, and I'm now satisfied that   
   the article that you quoted is totally bogus and there is no Dr Berthold   
   Ackermann in charge of any such project.
