While we're at it, let's also appreciate chemistry.
Without chemicals, life itself would be impossible.

"There are millions of compounds everywhere you look. Chances are that everything you can see is one type of compound or another. When elements join together and become compounds they lose their individual traits. Sodium alone is very reactive. But when sodium combines with chlorine (another reactive element) they form a non-reactive substance called sodium chloride (Salt, NaCl). The compound has none of the traits or the original elements. It has a new life of its own."

Does anyone want to hear more?

2. FUCK
I am a science booster, and all that happy horseshit, but PLEASE don't kill our Saturday night!

If you were my chemistry teacher, instead of the evil Ms. Perlick, I would be a mad scientist today, harvesting stem cells to create a Zomby Peach Pie Army designed to throw Bush out of office...
