The alchemists' grasp of science is displayed quite concisely in the first few sentences of their front page:
The last building used by the Guild from that era still stands and is shown at right.

Anyway, what do you get if you join up?
All new members receive a gilded Certificate of Membership (suitable for framing) which assigns you a license to practice alchemy
Rob has rightly noticed the absurdity that one can get a license for this, but has failed to point out the even greater absurdity that the certificate is gilded. Surely a more effective system of licensing would be to give members a plain paper certificate and only allow those with gilded certificates to practice.
