"Gatekeeper of the Consciousness: Israeli Study Finds Brain Area Regulating Attention and Wakefulness

The study found that an area of the brain called the claustrum regulates wakefulness, attention and behavior. Varying its activity levels in mice affected sleep, responsiveness, and impulsive behavior, potentially aiding treatments for disorders like ADHD"

I've seen that working. A few coppers came into my favourite balti house. They were breathing in some CO2 when they were in there. The level of CO2 was a bit higher than normal because it was a busy Saturday night, so quite packed. Before they even got home, the methane was pumping out their backsides at a fierce rate.

I've seen that working. A few coppers came into my favourite balti house. They were breathing in some CO2 when they were in there. The level of CO2 was a bit higher than normal because it was a busy Saturday night, so quite packed. Before they even got home, the methane was pumping out their backsides at a fierce rate.

 

I was puzzled about how the policemen managed to convert CO2 into methane and I found this on Google:

 

“To recycle carbon dioxide into methane, an established industrial method involves the reaction of hydrogen and carbon dioxide using a ruthenium-based catalyst at temperatures of 300 to 400 degrees Celsius, but this method limited how much and when methane could be produced since it requires such high temperature,” ...

 

I am not sure how they could manage to create temperatures of 300 to 400C, except that since it was a curry house they may have had a very hot vindaloo. Where they got the hydrogen, I have no idea.

Those are good points. But covid is now gone

Those are good points. But covid is now gone

 

Really? It killed my neighbour about three weeks ago. A member of my family had it last month. It hasn't gone, and it won't be going. A respected member of this forum reported that a large proportion of the people working at his doctor's surgery were ill with it and that there was suspicion that his own illness was caused by it.

 

If you mean that fewer people are dying and getting gravely ill now, that is true, but it is still here.
