interesting practical
science, is exactly the part of H&S that I object to. I was fortunate in
that I did get to mess around with things that could have been dangerous
if misused -- HV power supplies, the mains, evacuated galls vessels,
sharp tools, etc and never had a serious injury. Mainly because I thought
about what I was doing and took some care.
Isn't it EXTREMELY dangerous, and totally lacking in health and safety
consciousness, to raise an entire generation who never got taught how to
properly and safely wire a plug??????
