I quite liked the kind of chemistry in which you looked up past
results (so as not to repeat or be able to repeat) and then used a few
equations to try to grasp what shapes might be in possible contact
with each other and how you might get more of the contacts you wanted
and produce some new compound.  I used to wonder why ice cream hadn't
melted at 4 degrees C and whether I could find something that would
make water foam at higher temperatures.  Sooner or later I was into
complex organo-metalics and the promiscuous world of hydrogen
bonding.  I was reasonably successful and we tend to forget that even
this comes from feeling about in the dark and hard work in observation
and recording rather than tranced genius.  It has always seemed
strange to me that mystical experience (which I share) is so much the
province of con-people and dullards looking for some arse to follow
and trendies.
