Are they still allowed to use Bunsen burners? I would think the 'Health &
Safety' legislation would have done away with them - just think of the risk
assessment (remembering burnt lines down the centre of the lab benches due
to generations of students.....)! As for what was in some of the cupboards
in the chemistry lab ... Porton Down would have been interested. It
certainly had the effect of attracting my interest (perhaps towards the more
'energetic' reactions...), even though I ended up as a physicist.

Hopefully, John, Someone or Something will do for them all one day!
  When we now have serious discussions about paying students to attend 
to the sciences and engineering studies then I would suggest that the 
politicians have already done for the sciences!
  By definition, this shows that there are no longer sufficient good 
teachers in the system to excite and motivate students at an early age.
  Paying students to be taught by the mediocre will simply produce more 
mediocrity.
I just hope that the last good science teacher remembers to turn off 
the Bunsen burner as he leaves! (Ooops, I forgot we will probably run 
out of affordable gas by then!)

Thought for today:

What politicians do for science, hopefully science will do for them one 
day!
