In 1964, I had the opportunity to share several luncheons with the Polish inventor of a chemical with an unusual configuration and site of action in the human brain, the limbic system, which was stolen by Hitler's men and used as a 'secret weapon', an anti-fear drug, at the start of WWII while the supply lasted. This started a chase to find, kill, or capture, him at a time when he lost his assistant and fiance, the daughter of a prominent Jewish family, to capture by the Nazis, while she was trying to find them in the Warsaw Ghetto. A Swiss national, therefore neutral, as a representative of a large Swiss pharmaceutical research company, helped him with the search, but he never saw his lost love again. While searching the Warsaw Ghetto, he was able to help the inhabitants and witness their prosecution, as well as aid them with pharmaceuticals. I promised to tell the world his story some day.
