While training is helpful the
real need is getting the information about the hazard to the teachers and
administrators. Apparently some instructors don't know there is a
problem. My suggestion is for the ACS and
teacher organizations to jointly contact local and national news media to have
a segment on the dangers of some of these demonstrations and how to perform
them safely. That should get parent and school administrators
attention. This would make a nice PBS Frontline or 60 Minutes
segment. The Chemical Safety Board makes
outstanding videos and excellent reports but their reach appears
limited. Laurence

this one couldn't wait for Monday's headlines: Two
are in serious condition (presumably with burns). No chemistry details
yet. I think we all have a good guess at what was involved based on
unfortunate past experiences, but let's sit tight until there is
confirmation. Rob
