- LETTERS, Page 10Scientific Shortfall
-
- TIME's story about a deficit in American scientific
- education was illustrated with several symbols, one of which was
- an artist's flight of fancy showing a benzene ring attached to
- a water molecule. More than 40 of our readers have quite an
- adequate science background. They have let us know this chemical
- structure does not exist. We should have used a hydroxyl group
- (OH) attached to the benzene ring.
