Dear readers, Recently I have read a book "What is life? How chemistry becomes biology" written by Addy Pross published from Oxford University Press. Did you read that book too? Referering to Fig. 6 on page 126 of that book, the author seems to be emphasizing that he can synthesize the two processes, that is, the chemical transformation (abiogenesis) and the biological transformation (evolution), into one united process by applying his Dynamic Kinetic Stability (DKS) concept and systmes chemistry. How do you think about his theory? Sincerely M.Y. June 14, 2013

Dear all, As always, please take a break and have some coffee, Sirs. I am now reading a book "Quantum Divide" written by C.C. Gerry and K. M. Bruno, published from Oxford University Press. In chapter 8 of the book, the authors explain the readers that the reductionism is the base of modern science. They say that the property of matter can be explained by its constituent molecules. Then the property of the molecule can be explained by its constituent atoms. And the atom can be explained by its constituent elctrons and nucleus. They are calling this process of iteration as reductionism. Quantum mechanics can explain the behavior of electron and nucleus. Then we naturally wish to know more fundamental explanation than the quantum mechanics. That is, we try to reduce the thing further. But the authors write that "Perhaps quantum mechanics is the end of the road for reductionism."(page 169) Can't we ever obtain an understanding of physics that is further deeper than the quantum mechanics? Is the quantum mechanics the last word of or the end of physics? How do you think, Sirs? Thank you for reading Sincerely

I have a bucket full of soda-lime glass bead blasting material that has flour gold mixed in it. I can't remove the gold by means of mechanical separation and was wondering if there's a chemical method to dissolve the soda glass leaving the gold behind. I am willing to send samples to whom ever can help and you may keep the gold that you extract in return for information. I can see the gold with a jewlers loop. This is a lucrative opportunity for whoever can assist me. I have already turned in over 10k$ worth of gold that was larger pieces but now the gold is very tiny and sifting is not doing the trick anymore. I'm looking at a mercury method but I'm interested in dissolving the soda-lime glass chemically. TIA
