Knowledge is power, especially when it has to do with possible treatments for debilitating conditions. Good for them for stepping out of the conventional zone.

That sentence is very strangely put together. Of course knowledge is power? That doesn't mean this article wasn't visually annoying. Subjectivity, you know.

That's fine!

a) Yes, right, Knowledge IS power, but only when you know about it. Ketamine as a depression treatment is very under the radar. You can only empower people with knowledge once they have it to use.

b) You mentioned nothing about "annoying" or "subjectivity" -- you were being snide and unproductive with your "bloomberg talking about drugs jeez" comment, and I felt the need to respond and praise them for going outside of common bounds.

Me and you have very different ideas on how to spread knowledge about drugs, let's just agree on that :)
