Notable alumni
gollark: If you tweak them at all, they probably stop working properly for unfathomable chemistry/physics reasons.
gollark: I mean, consider enzymes. They can do things which regular non-biochemist chemists could only dream of, and often do multiple functions at once and interact with each other in bizarre ways.
