Back in the day, and if you're over 30 this has got to include

It's near enough 60 years since I studied chemistry at college (high
school) but I was taught even then that organic chemistry was to do
with carbon and any compound containing it. Nothing at all about it
having to be life or a product of life.
I once stated that Chicago was as far away from NY as NY is from
Chicago and TWO people disagreed with me. You are proving it was
not a fluke.
