Why is there an organic layer in my tea?
I've noticed lately that when I'm drinking tea it often has a thin organic layer resting at the top. Does anyone know of any components in tea (black tea) that would produce that? I've checked for possible contaminants, but everything seems pretty clean. I drew it off the top once, and it does indeed mix with other non-polar solvents, so its likely organic.
Just thought maybe some of you organic chemistry wizards might have some insight on what it could be.
1 AnswerChemistry1 decade agoTell me the first thing that comes to your mind when you read the following words...?
I'm just curious, this isn't for some big experiment. Restrict each answer to a single word or phrase (you can add explanations at the end if you want but you don't have to).
I'm hoping for as many answers as I can get, and there's no right or wrong answer. Just write the first thing that comes to your head when you read the word(s). Thanks!

30 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoAny insights on game download sites like 'gamersedgedownloads.com'?
Specifically, what's the catch? These sites are all very vague as to their details, and they all look like complete scams.
You pay a yearly fee (like $20) then suddenly have access to 'virtually' all current games available to download directly to your PC without any further charges? How would something like that even be legal?
