Discovery & Invention, Period 5, 2 Apr '08
Mohinder was a little more subdued this week.
"Alchemy is one of the forerunners of modern chemistry, an attempt to better understand this world around us without the rigorous framework that we would recognise as a science today."
Mohinder took a coin from his pocket and flipped it up in the air. "A common theme throughout the centuries is the search for right circumstances to turn base metals into gold. Although these claims are unverified the belief in them remains constant, a common need to believe in what - " Mohinder took a breath "at least, so far - seems beyond the reach of our chemical and physical sciences."
"Would you maintain a belief in the weight of so much evidence against it?" he asked, looking at the coin in his hand, before pocketing it again.
Turning back to the class, Mohinder told them, "The closest we can come to this is plating one metal with other. Try using this setup to change your metals."
[OCD is up!]

Except that only lasted for so long. He raised his hand. "If you're only teaching from this world's perspective, why the hell don't you qualify it?"
