Hey, dude, thanks for writing!
I could swear (so to speak) You sat next to me on an 11 hour airplane
flight not too long ago and tried to strike up a similar conversation. I
apologize for being too engrossed in the latest Dawkins book.
However, we encountered a similar structural riddle in need of
interpretation recently. Depicted on this link is our best guess at the
Transition-State structure. I believe you will be especially taken by the
leaving group, although I cannot vouch for the orientation and its
subsequent trajectory:

Hope this helps.
PS: I had an undergraduate in the lab recently who was working on a
homologue to your project. Unfortunately he was denied entry to graduate
school. His grades were quite good, but I hear he got nailed on the
boards.

Hello My Friends,
I hope you are all enjoying the Sabbath on this first day of April.
I have recently been struggling to understand the meaning of my structure
and now I am looking for guidance. After a long period aimlessly wandering
through dense regions of ambiguity, I have of late been inspired with
profound clarity.
First, I should enlighten you about my structure. I believe that is one
that
promises great hope for all people. However, I have not been without my
detractors, for many have lost faith in its absolute value to humanity.
My question is about the nature of a strange and wonderful positive
density
I have found. It seems to be coordinated by a trinity of bonds--yet
otherwise floats mystically in a heavenly fashion. I do not fully
understand
it though somehow I know that it holds the key to my perpetual happiness.
I must confess that resurrecting this project has been trying. I have been
tempted to seek another path many times, often posessed with thoughts of
worldly acquisition. But if I can not see the light that this density
offers, a comittee will crucify me, rendering salvation of my thesis
difficult without divine intervention. Such a sacrifice I can not make
without grave consideration.
I have put an image of this strange density here:

Please, if anyone can provide guidance, I will be eternally grateful.
Peace be with you,
Jesus H. Christiano
