That's an odd think to expect (unless there's something you're not telling us).

I've often made parallels with the alchemists and their three goals of 
transmuting the elements, achieving flight, and immortality. I like to say: 
two down, one to go.

The alchemists were pre-scientific, of course, but had their heart in the 
right place.
