Message:
I saw an interesting item 10 years ago or so that gave the "chemical 
composition" of an orange.  Of course it sounded like something no one would 
want to eat, and I'd like to use this information to debunk people who eschew 
"chemicals" in their diet and only want to use "natural" substances (like 
nicotine and arsenic, I guess).
