Coover and his partner were trying to come up with a new formula for a plastic to make gun sight lenses, but it was too sticky. Ironically, its first wide-scale use was in the Vietnam War, where it was used to seal wounds until the patient could be evacuated to surgery. It was supposed to help kill people, but it ended up saving them instead. What were they thinking?
