A photoactive substance called (8MOP) 5'8' Methoxypsoralen can alter the genetic make-up of human skin and activate the Tyrosinase enzyme. Upon injestion or topical application ( along with UVA), (8MOP) forms monofunctional (addition to a single strand of DNA) and bifunctional (Cross linking to psoralen on both strands of DNA). This activates an enzyme that oxidizes Tyrosine to L-Dopa and L-Dopa to Dopaquinone and will give you a tan. (8MOP) is Located in Oil of Bergamot.

Are you by any chance a salesman?

I'll take forty bottles.

What are you saying here? I get that it can mutate, but what does this have to do with aliens?

actually...

trioxsalen is a chemical pigmenting photosensitizing agent obtained from several plants, mainly psoralea corylifolia. It is administered either topically or orally in conjunction with ultraviolet light in the treatment of vitiligo.

I still dont know what this has to do with aliens...

nothing at all.

Forget the darned aliens for a moment. Is this something that will prevent me from being an FAA hazard at the beach this year. Can it keep me from blinding fellow beach-goers? Could it stop Klansmen from looking at me and think, "Man. That guys too white even for my ideologies!"?

Where do I get some? I don't have to join a MLM scheme and go to stupid rallies, do I?

must join a cd club.

AAAaarrgh!! Nooooo!

Can't they just charge me outrageous prices like everyone else? Must they also be cruel?
