"Where men build on false grounds,the more they build, the greater the ruin." -Hobbes, Leviathan
I have come to enlighten you on the chemical substance of Phosphorus. Did you know that phosphorus was first distilled from cow urine. (well now you do) A french alchemist offered a demonstration to the King of France (Le Roi) who believed that phosphorus was some form of quintensence (gods direct influence on earth/metaphysical glue of the universe) The alchemist, who had the unfortunate task of correcting the King of France, (which traditionally was not done) told Le Roi that the glowing substance was distilled from the open sewers of Paris


Just thought I would tell you
