Technical Details

Seed Number: 205 097 5997
Version: XBL 1.4 (TU9) (no PC equiv)

Etymology

The drug industry was originally random guys -- known as apothecaries -- standing around grinding animal bones and other such nonsense into dust using a bowl (mortar) and a heavy club (pestle) so that sick people could dissolve the "medicine" in water and drink it. Most of the mummies that were buried in the Egyptian desert were lost in this way -- dissolved in water to "cure" the superstitious.

Notes

Normally, this seed would never have made the cut, but the black cave I found was something I couldn't ignore. Aside from that, this seed is standard patchwork boredom.
