It is worth noting that this topic is the subject of the special discussio
n period at Council in Denver. The discussion is open for any to atten
d though only Councilors can participate.
Since many academics are Councilors, there should be some good contribution
s, though I expect the discussion to highlight the large difference in appro
aches by academic and industrial scientists attention/concern/training on sa
fety and an instinctive safety culture before even crossing the lab threshol
d.
