Yep, it pulls liquids in like absorbent, which the body cannot process so it just passes through your gut and you poo it out. Quick funny story about that. Girl at a party had alcohol poisoning so some kid who said he was a nurse gave her charcoal. Real charcoal, like GRILLING CHARCOAL, not active charcoal. He thought it worked because she was throwing up when we got there.
Add charpoo 2015.

Those dark stains underneath IC ward beds often come from charpoo since that shit never cleans out

Just wanted to say that, sans the kinda dumb idea of making emags even more powerful by giving them easy access to a mini c-saber, i think that the Cyalume Surgical Device might be a neat thing to find in, say, the ice moon medical bay, or as a neat toy for purchase, as something relatively nontrivial to get for a neat benefit and cool effect.

2053 actually, pretty sure
I think the date's calculated as just the current date + 50 years.
That would make the date 20
64. I used to think that it was current date + 40 (ex. 2054) but it must have been coded/decided upon in 2013 sometime to just use the current date without being able to change the "year" variable of the ingame date.
