Hey, you too bud..I'm about to pass out in shame and ignominy myself.
I cant see how you might be question begging with the "IDK!" response, personally.....but if what you actually mean to say is that you do know, and what you know is that science simply cant provide the relevant value...then you are proposing something that epicuras himself could have never proposed because he knew no better. He thought that the stomach was the seat of consciousness (not an uncommon supposition in his day), and could not have known that there was a chemical formulation for the thing he considered the root of value.
Sweet dreams, amigo. Pick it up tomorrow?
