Aggie Alchemy

John Bockris was known around Texas A&M as a chemist interested in "weird science." Joe Champion gave him all he could handle.

On a recent morning in Tennessee, Andy Brooks, the machine shop owner, got a phone call from a woman. She saw Brooks' name in the book's acknowledgments, right there alongside John O'M. Bockris', and wanted to know what Brooks thought about it all. Brooks didn't have to think long, he says.

"I just laughed out loud."
