I know people who used meth for long periods and their memories are shot. Of course, they are people and not snails.

"We were not trying to addict the snails"
Sure lady. We know you are just trying to make fun of druggies.

A snail on meth?
Sorta like matter & anti-matter isn't it?
To: JoeProBono
"But snails exposed to meth recalled the poking more than 24 hours later and kept their tubes closed."
The snails became paranoid about the popos.

They don’t go faster? Bummer. I have this mental image of the Cuban snail race from the Guinness commercial.

The researchers poked the tubes with sticks, irritating the animals, thus training them not to extend their tubes.

Yeah that was my thought. These scientists are ASSUMING this is a memory reaction not a paranoid reaction.
To: cripplecreek
People on meth have no teeth and barely any memory at all.

Washington State University playing around with snails and meth. Glad to see WSU’s student’s parents money going to good use.
To: Smokin' Joe
Absolutely. Probably the worst drug ever invented.
To: JoeProBono
Scientist seem to have too much time on their hands these days.
