Alchemy was far more mainstream than, say, 'chemistry'.
The gay president would be Buchanan, and as for conspiracy theorists, well, that's the shortest summary. See http://www.gwern.net/Mistakes#the-american-revolution
Alchemy in general, yes. But Newton was less than generous with his science at the best of times; with the already secretive alchemy, he wasn't exactly publishing peer-reviewed articles.
Thanks for the history trivia :)
Well come on, it's not like Newton's alchemy was noticeably more nonsensical than regular alchemy!
