Of course people of the 17th century didn't understand very little about chemistry but to someone as slow as Krygowski, his useless citation provided him ALL of rhe knowledge necessary to deny chemistry advances of Silca. I said nothing about Silca. I merely pointed out that you were wrong in your claim that candle wax comes from tallow. As I said, these days it doesn't, except in very weird instances. -- - Frank Krygowski
