Discussions of general cognitive enhancing tools such as Adderall and N-Back.

I'd like to see more discussion of n-back too, but I'm not sure there is anything to discuss. There's only so much research on it and I think I've covered most of the anecdotal material as well in my DNB FAQ.

Do our own research?

Nobody really cares enough; eg. some SIAI House people tried and abandoned n-backing.
