The Secret Sauce for Meth

Meth is the corps molecule that needs to be transformed. Do you really see these cooks as alchemists? Yes, i do. And i'm glad you you say that this is not merely a metaphor. It isn't. I consider met kin to be the late industrial incarnation of alchemy for some of the reasons that you mentioned. Its turning base matter, ordinary common matter, even garbage, into something and transmuting it into something of great value like gold or the elixir of life.
