Science Marches Onward - Date Rape

Actually the prevention of same. Four guys from North Carolina State have mixed an indicator chemical with nail polish to make it possible to detect a Mickey in your drink by simply giving it a provacitive swirl with your finger.

Impregnating the swizzle sticks with the indicator would probably also work and would mark an adulterated drink even after it arrived at your table. If you come back from the ladies room and discover that your stick is from a different bar, your suspicions should be aroused.

The FDA will probably ban it.
