I suggest that we bring over the two other white shelves and pick things up off the floor and demonstrate the advantage of having such organization. We could present the idea Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. We could present it as a fait accompli or as a propasition. ed

1.At some point a safety shower would be nice. Be on the lookout for one removed from service. -ed

2.I think I can get used CO2 fire extinguishers They don't make a mess and work well on equipment - not so well on furniture, rugs, paper where water can do a great job (or more expensively, Dry Chemical). -ed

3.1 I have obtained two shop ligts for 40 watt fluorescent bulbs. They are devoid of lamps and have not been tested, but they appear new. They need two "S" hooks and two pieces of chain for one of them. ed
