In my Grade 9 science class we learned about refraction and stuff. We got to go outside and burn stuff with a magnifying glass.LordRetard wrote:I remember chem class in grade 12, I needed some sodium chloride solution so my teacher gave me a bottle of sodium hydroxide pellets, told me to make it myself, and then said, "but be careful, if it touches your skin it'll dissolve in the moisture on your skin, and that'll cause a very serious chemical and heat burn". A lot of the stuff we were doing was illegal, as I recall.
We then made every excuse to go out and do that day after day, and for the most part we were allowed.
We were learning, after all...
