One concern I have is about what bath salts do to the brains of the
users  [1].  The users exhibit zombie-like behavior, and when they are less
delirious, they can become violent and extremely difficult to restrain.  If
some naive researchers developed a contagious biological agent that had a
similar effect on the brain as bath salts, we would have a genuine zombie
problem.
