If we're tuning algae to make fun molecules why stop at (or start with) nicotine? How about meth? THC?

I know which I'd rather see escape into the wild again. Methed up sharks all over the shorelines or stoned ones? The choice is easy.

Of course if we can get them to make a stable LSD then the sharks and the squids will be coming ashore to do song and dance routines for us.

unless i'm reading your implication wrong, sounds like you prefer sharks with the munchies to sharks with bad teeth?

Good point: how do sharks behave on meth? We should demand $4 billion in federal funds to research the question forthwith.

Might need to block off sections of the ocean to control for the cocaine shark research (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/are-cocaine-shark...)

I wonder if drugs that affect humans affect sharks in the same way!?

What?! People poison is shark poison?!

ugh as if the biting isnt enough, now the sharks are gonna tell you their whole life story in magnificent detail before they take you legs off...

I can't help but notice the omission of cocaine.
