Have they tried wood alcohol?
Finally, A real use for booze.

The only thing that would generate more interest is if he claimed sex increased superconductivity.
Liquor is Super!
Thought you might like the subject.
Like all other discoveries, I wonder how they first discovered that soaking stuff overnight in booze helps.
Now I feel like an idiot for not having noticed.

I had a dream about this.
bflr
It's rare that hot booze does anything more than get you drunk, and possibly make you sick, but according to Dr. Yoshihiko Takano, the drink you're sucking on could facilitate the levitation of a train.
[snip]FeTe0.8S0.2 (composed of iron, tellurium, and tellurium sulfide), when soaked in warm booze overnight, shows signs of increased superconductivity -- [snip]As it turns out, red wine has the highest superconducting volume fraction at 62.4 percent -- nearly four times higher than the ethanol-water control samples.
So, after being pickled in alcohol overnight, why doesn't my brain work faster?
Booze - The Cause of and Solution to all of Life’s Problems!
Its a good start toward creating the Infinite Improbability generator which powers the infinite improbability drive.

Another thing they couldn't stand was the perpetual failure they encountered while trying to construct a machine which could generate the infinite improbability field needed to flip a spaceship across the mind-paralyzing distances between the farthest stars, and at the end of the day they grumpily announced that such a machine was virtually impossible.
Then, one day, a student who had been left to sweep up after a particularly unsuccessful party found himself reasoning in this way: If, he thought to himself, such a machine is a virtual impossibility, it must have finite improbability. So all I have to do in order to make one is to work out how exactly improbable it is, feed that figure into the finite improbability generator, give it a fresh cup of really hot tea... and turn it on!
He did this and was rather startled when he managed to create the long sought after golden Infinite Improbability generator. He was even more startled when just after he was awarded the Galactic Institute's Prize for Extreme Cleverness he was lynched by a rampaging mob of respectable physicists who had realized that one thing they couldn't stand was a smart-ass.
