Yeah. The earlier, more famous posts of the blog on the article were about stuff that this book gives up on using because it just can't be contained and similar.

Then the blog goes into more and more dangerous stuff...

The silver lining is that the more dangerous a substance it, the lower the odds of it actually harming anybody, because everybody reacts like the author.

'reacts'. Violently.

Always puts me in the mood to read the imitable "Excuse me sir, would you like to buy a kilo of isopropyl bromide"

Thanks, I needed to read Gegel again! http://library.sciencemadness.org/library/books/gergel_isopr...

This is such a good book, and it was very accessible as someone with little chemistry education.
