When the FBI arrests Zane Donovan before bringing him to Eureka, a box for Half Life 2 can be seen. The Half Life series is originally about a top secret research facility called Black Mesa, not unlike the town of Eureka.
First appearance of Niall Matter as Zane Donovan.
Bicuculline is a potent light activated antagonist (blocker) of the neurotransmitter GABA, and blocking neurotransmitters keeps associated neurons from working. But, there are two classes of neurons: excitatory neurons stimulate other neurons to fire; inhibitory neurons suppress other neurons. Gas pedal and brake pedal. Gabaergic neurons are inhibitory, so bicuculline would act like cutting the brake line on your car - it won't slow you down but might make you go too fast. Bicuculline is routinely used in research to overstimulate brains and cause epilepsy-like seizures.
Zane says that shielding the big bang experiment would take at least 100 tons of metallic hydrogen sheets. It is theoretically possible to chill and compress hydrogen to the point it not only becomes solid but acts like a metal. However this takes pressure millions of times greater than atmospheric pressure. You might be able to make metallic hydrogen sheets deep within a gas giant like Jupiter.
