"One can see the free software movement as a precusor for a "free hardware" or "free wetware" movement--one that will provide free libraries of designs for biological or nanotechnological products that replicators can be programmed to churn out."
- Charles Stross

Anadrenalin  
  Has the opposite effect of adrenalin.  

He even discovered a couple of new ones, especially one he calls "anadrenalin", because it has just the opposite effect of adrenalin. Instead of stimulating the heard violently, it retards the heart and the whole neural system to infinitesimal activity.

Published by Astounding Science Fiction in 1933
