I did not post it lightly. And it is very much a chemistry related problem.
The goal of computational science is to do science with the computer. In
my experience, chemists are big users of this concept [Years in industry
tell me this] The question is what should we make available to the
scientists and engineers who write programs. Or maybe you're still
using a slide rule.
