[NMScience] Free Little Book of Experiments

[Labsafe at aol.com]

Dear Ellen,
 
I have concerns about several of the experiments in the referenced "little  
book".  The safety precautions are insufficient or non-existent in many  cases. 
 Please encourage your teachers to take great care in reviewing each  
experiment.  They should be able to answer four simple questions in  advance.
 
1. What are the hazards?
2. What can go wrong?
3. What do I need to do to be prepared?
4. What are the prudent practices, protective equipment, and protective  
facilities needed to minimize the risk?
 
LSI will be happy to work with you and your teachers to review experiments  
and provide commentary.
 
Regards, ... Jim
