[edit] Moved historic info from the Calabar bean article

There was a huge chunk of drug information in the Calabar bean article ported from the 1911 Britannica, I've moved that into this article. Hopefully someone who knows more about pharmaceuticals can pare that historical info down into something that's useful for this article, but it definitely seems more appropriate here in the physostigmine article than in the Calabar bean article.

[edit] Percy Julian

I'm curious as to why Percy Julian is hardly mentioned at all in this article. After all, he was the first person who was able to synthesize physostigmine.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 05:41, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
