Real-World Synthehol In Development
Ada_Rules writes "Researchers at the Imperial College London have announced development of an alcohol substitute that has many of the same properties as the Synthehol from the series Star Trek, in that one will get a buzz from it but will not end up with a hangover. In addition you will have the option of getting immediately sober if you so desire it. Let's hope this is not the typical vaporware. It is not that I really want a drink of Synthehol, but with its release I assume Romulan Ale won't be far behind."
Hint: It was from a poll. Admittedly the pizza poll but it's practically the same thing as a location poll. 52% for north america, which would include canada. http://slashdot.org/pollBooth.pl?qid=1900&aid=-1 The poll may be slightly slanted to Europe for everyone who went to italy and had expensive pizza but since there are gourmet pizzas on every continent most people will have voted where they live.
