Nomenclature

The title is "6-Methyl-MDA" but the name of the chemical is "2-methyl-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine" instead of "6-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine". [edit] Some confusion will result from this method of naming. I have already edited the 5-Methyl page because it erroneously named the chemical "5-Methyl-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine". This was clearly a mistake as the 5 position was not occupied by both the methyl group and one of the oxygen. I feel inclined to edit this page also.
