 It's not a theroy. It's a fact. There's one chemical they can smell
that's butylic acid. I forget what that is about... hmm. Anyway they
can be trained via scent to wake up a sleeping
diabetic during an insulin reaction. I don't know what scent it is
they  are trainted to detect and react to but I can find out.
