It just seems like This particular useful substance with its rainbow packed flames could be thought of as the fast forward rocket  fuel and Pandora's box of the 19th and 20th Century, and layers rather nicely into the text of the Novel.

Emendations?  I had to look that one up.

But what do you want?  Emendations from this list re. your

engendering more death.  It's all in there.
