I cannot imagine such a lab even being allowed in San Francisco these days. Why, it contains "chemicals"!

Yes, the views, the high ceiling, and the dark wood casements are my nostalgia. These are what my university chemical labs had in the '60s.
Now if we could just add the smell of ether, organic halides, a little ester, a steam bath, etc.... And the sound of a hood fan.

Oh, look? It's Santa being distracted from his job delivering pressies by the chymist's apparatuses and on his timewarp new phone informing other
families of the slight delay . . . ? ![:D](./images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
