MOLECULES

Molecules are like postage stamps in a way....each molecule has a story and some molecules are richer than others....stamps have dull or interesting stories too.....but the molecules can be interpreted in terms of mathematics and there are families of molecules related by structural formulas and ultimately by mathematical abstraction...I was attracted to the structural forms and corresponding stories of molecules....some are killers and some save lives.....some molecules are just boring and they do not have any important story.....some molecules are very valuable and others are colorful....and the extended patterns of the molecules are yet on another level telling a story and reducible to some types of mathematical abstraction....that was my level of interest....I was never interested much in physics or in astronomy....just in chemistry and mathematics and patterns....it all came about gradually first at IUP then more so at UKy and Cornell.....I learned the most at Cornell.
