Did they earn a gold star:rolleyes: My son just got one for writing his own name, if you squint and look sideways it kinda looks ok.

I once heard that a teacher gave white phosphurus to A-Level students to cut up, instead of red phosphurus. Anyone who knows their chemistry will understand why that was stupid and dangerous (if rather hillarious:D).

:eek:

Doh! Now that *was* stupid :) Anyone get set on fire?

Oleum isn't that odd to have..... I've got some in my room.... 'course I made it myself from plain lab-grade H₂SO₄....

I would never in my life store White P in my room though....

I wouldn't store it within 100m of my room! :)

Nope :(. The Teacher wasn't even sacked:rolleyes::mad::eek::confused: )

You're sad cos no one was set on fire - that isn't very nice!

What can I say. I'm insensitive. I wouldn't want anyone to be injured seriously, only small burns to the fingers etc.
You'd laugh if it was in a film, wouldn't you?
