Cofty,
Thank you for your posts. Much better you're not shitting all over the chess board now. You're asking me how to play chess.
After work I will explain what I mean by racemic mixtures have an imbalance of enantiomers and autocatalysis does not occur.
Thank you for your direct quote from Soai's paper. When I read the multiple links you've put up this abstract wasn't in any of them. Can you provide the link so I can check the credibility myself please. I appreciate you going back and getting it. I have also researched his paper myself using Google and I have never seen this abstract.
It's also confusing that you claim to understand the abstract but not my word salad. I use the same terms. I will explain though.
Off to work now
