In compliance with the Explosives Act 2003 and Explosives Regulation 2005, we need to declare if and how much of ammonium nitrate and other chemicals that are explosive or have the potential to be explosive are kept in this building.I am conducting a survey of these items in order to compile a list for the school. Could you please go through the list and indicate the amount of each chemical/item kept in your laboratory. Please indicate zero amount if you do not carry any one of these chemicals.
Please email me or submit a hard copy and do not forget to indicate the name of your laboratory, name of the person checking and amount in grams. I need to have this data by Wednesday 16 May and your cooperation will be highly appreciated.
They are actually going to list them? With room numbers and quantities?
Hot damn! I can't wait!

Are you kidding?
How do they define "explosive"? You could list just about anything if the definition's loose enough.
And do you have to list the stuff that you don't have stored properly? You know, like the squirt bottle of ethanol on your bench, which should probably *technically* be in a flammables cabinet?
Reminds me of the time we had to put a safety sticker on the box of instant skim milk powder... yes really.
