Why are you offering us basic educational material in chemistry? Did you browse the forum and find us all to be lacking in knowledge and skill? Did
you, at the same time, perceive us to be receptive to your attempts to enlighten us to the mysteries of Organic Chemistry? I'm glad you've found some
things to read. Please visit the "References" area sometime and see if you can figure out what level most of the people here are operating at. I was
impressed. Somehow I don't think Schaums Outline series is where the members need to be. (I've known a few people who taught themselves Organic
Chemistry by reading books. They were the extra smart, truly exceptional ones who were also fiercely independant. The rest of us went to school.
Then we read and started teaching ourselves.) Take a look at Vogel's 3rd ed. A lot of the things you've asked around here are revealed within.

i just post the link because they were thing i found in my quest for knowledge that were helpful. If they helped me, they may help some other poor
soul not ask the same stupid questions i do... For example the first link is a PDF that could be tossed at anybody interested in chemistry, that would
give them at least a sense of what chemistry actually involves. It mat be written with a focus on solvents, but it explains a great deal yet is a
pretty easy read.

Contrived, we do get a lot of beginners at the forum who this resource might be valuable to. Most of those people don't even know we have a reference
section and a conveniently named topic like this could prove helpful to those people. That being said I wouldn't say this is for beginners. When I
think beginner I think the person with almost no chemical background aside from knowing that backing soda is a leavening agent. This is more of an
intermediate (some experience) look at things.

I disagree, I would classify a beginner as anyone who can not properly notate a molecule. Maybe the word is armature not beginner

In regard to your thread here _
http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=9203&a...
There already is a thread on this topic here _
http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=6664
This second addition _
http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=9203&a...
should have been put here in - Computational Models and Techniques -
http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/forumdisplay.php?fid=22
Your contributions are appreciated , but there is really no need to start another
thread. This just makes the information provided harder to find as it becomes
left behind newer and updated threads.

Don't put too much weight on it Slimz, this forum's search is notoriously horrible. Google might have better results at least.
