    Methanetetrol cannot survive on Earth due to its instability under everyday atmospheric conditions.Quickly decomposes into water and carbon dioxide... The search continues for the anti-hangover alcohol molecule.

    400 proof. Simultaneously causes blindness, every woman to look like a super model, and makes you 100 feet tall.

    Somebody needs to tell them that when it spontaneously decomposes, it forms carbon dioxide and water - what are trying to do, fry the planet?
