	The Most Valuable Substance? Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

You too can own a gram of generic carbon nanotubes for $500. It's amazing the kinds of scams that Houstonites can come up with.

The BuckyPlus brand of nanotubes will cost you $900 a gram.

Yeah, I know. I was astounded by the report also.

But I thought Texans don't need water -- I thought they can hydrate their bodies with just alcoholic beverages.

I thought coke was a lot less expensive. Perhaps if an Apolyton cokehead could chime in here, we would know.

Yeah . . .

My googling suggests that cocaine is about 1/10th as expensive (when bought in kilo quantity).

Dried snake venom is 800 times more expensive than gold of the same mass.

The bacteriophage viruses that were used in a biology assignment of mine surely had a rather nifty "per kilogram" price tag, since the cost of a few picograms was, IIRC, somewhere between three hundred and four hundred euros.

Saffron is one of the most expensive substanes there is by weight.

Yes, Americans controls the oil.. but soon.. we control the water! Listen all, this is important. Start sending me gifts, I accept money orders, pay pal, checks, flowers, electronics, gold and weaponry. So when the water runs out, I'll be giving you good deals and all that.

I have a friend who sells cow semen, and makes a lot from doing so... I don't think it is $900/gram though.

God's other DNA. His spare one. The one he keeps in good condition while using your rubbishy version for everyday use. The one he takes when he's going to a party. It's pretty much the same, but with more spangles.

Mind you, since you can't see DNA anyway, and no-one can see God then you'd be referring us to an invisible portion of an invisible entity. Besides, I don't believe in DNA.

The one sad thing about Zylka getting into rehab is that we won't have any more of his threads that start with:

You ever wake up one day and can't remember what you did for the past week, but are sure it involved paintaball, dung chucking, and a wedding?
