Because of safety reasons all my bottles of reagents on my shelf are labeled "do not drink" (except my ddH2O, that one is labeled "only drink if very thirsty"). I always thought it was a ridiculous precaution because who in their right mind would drink from a bottle in a lab. I mean if you're going write that, might as well add "do not use for enema".
Well I guess I'm just not gifted:
August 15, 2008 -- A gifted 15-year-old student from India had to be rushed to the hospital after drinking liquid nitrogen during a science class at Princeton University.
The class was part of a program run by the Connecticut-based Summer Institute for the Gifted.
