Thanks. I was trying to remember if I've ever read anything by Isaac Asimov, but I can't remember. I think I would have remembered if I had read one of the stories about Thiotimoline.

Jee - we are really getting off topic, and I'm not helping!

Thiotimoline is a fictitious chemical compound conceived by science fiction author Isaac Asimov and first described in a spoof scientific paper titled "The Endochronic Properties of Resublimated Thiotimoline" in 1948. Asimov went on to write three additional short stories, each describing different properties or uses of thiotimoline.
