David,
Well said.
I always laughed at the "Organic" food buyers....plants use the degraded phosphates, nitrogen etc. That's why artificial fertilizers work. My Dad was the best farmer I have yet met. He practiced all of the healthy organic methods, knowing that the plant used only the degraded chemicals.

Acetone is one of the breakdown products of alcohol...and contributes to the hangover. It can be toxic in large amounts.
One other thing, there will never be a chemical that was never found in nature in the past. Including those complex combinations that we use...sometime in the past they did occur; and will again.
