Actually, Fred, you learn all sorts of things in chemistry--including
chemistry lab--about distillation. And about how to make distillation
work I even knew a guy in high school (the son of a local judge) who
was able to build an electrically-powered still in his closet... and he
learned it all... in chemistry class. :)
