PASSAGE
Bruce, a research chemist for a major petro-chemical company, wrote a dense report
about some new compounds he had synthesized in the laboratory from oil-refining by-
products. The bulk of the report consisted of tables listing their chemical
and physical
properties, diagrams of their molecular structure, chemical formulas and computer
printouts of toxicity tests. Buried at the end of the report was a casual speculation that
one of the compounds might be a particularly effective insecticide. Seven years later, the
same oil company launched a major research program to find more effective but
environmentally safe insecticides. After six months of research, someone uncovered
Bruce's report and his toxicity tests. A few hours of further testing confirmed that one of
Bruce's compounds was the safe, economical insecticide they had been looking for. Bruce
had since left the company, because he felt that the importance of his research was not
being appreciated.
