Have a look back at the frequency of premature mortality among
the like of us.

Hi all,
I might also add that the chemical industry has no problem selling even
more
poisonous materials to farmers. Farmers are professionals who go out and
obtain
information any way they can. You don't have to have a PhD to do science
or
handle chemicals safely but you should know how to read a material
safety data
sheet and assess how much risk you are personally willing to take. I
don't need
a bunch of phony regulations inhibiting my aquisition of knowledge by
experimentation.

Hello Ray(pl)
Ray J
I would agree with your visual acuity. However, the key to any
chemical lab work is that the worker is not to be exposed to the
process fumes. It is air pollution in concentrated form. Not to
be disrespectful, but you are viewing the low-budget handiwork of
untrained mechanics (for the most part). If there are any who made
such displays in spite of being professionals then they should be
ashamed.
With all due respect, DIY handiworkers are not necessarily either
dumb or hamfisted, they can be very skilled and often are, and in
this case they have good information available (as well as bad
information). Also with all due respect, professional engineers can
be quite likely to spend $10,000 building a brand new steel fence
around a bamboo grove, though a bamboo fence would've been just fine.
They're just as vulnerable to bad information as anyone else.
