How do you define virtual? Is it limited only to simulations, or is it for any attempt to mimic nature? For example, organic compounds used to be considered impossible to synthesize due to a "vital force" until Wohler synthesized urea from inorganic compounds. Is organic chemistry the study of "fake" organic compounds?
- girvo 13y agoUnfortunately, a lot (most?) people do indeed see that as "fake" "chemicals"... that, I'll never understand.
