well the results of SWIM's 7 elemi drops in Armenian brandy are in:

SWIM noticed pleasant threshhold effects, but no launching into space.  SWIM noticed very tiny oilspots floating on top of the brandy, so the feeling is is that brandy is better than water, but others experience that honey is superior to brandy.   So, SWIM will try another 8 drops perhaps tonight dissolved in honey.

The Armenian brandy is great!  Aarat brand, older the better, try 20 yrs.
