whats with the name ??

[kingshit]

hey just wondering what the name Farmakon means or where it came from. I know Skepticism put out a album called "The process of farmakon" but I wana know what it means or is it just a made up word.

Greek language. Slightly modified. Ph=F and c=k. A substance that is in small doses a cure and in large ones poison. Also a love potion. Nothing to do with Skepticism. I guess they didn't actually mean to steal our idea... and website.

Don´t believe him. He´s an old liar.

Actually, in finnish Farmakon is VarmaKoni, which means something like "confident nag". They just wanted to replace "v" with "f" and took the "i" off from the end to be more kewl.
