As you flip through the contacts on your phone, you start to think that probably the most interesting (if not the most risky) person to give the formula to would be a middle school boy; someone on the verge of becoming an adult, going through puberty and having all sorts of conflicting thoughts, emotions, and feelings running through their heads.
