OT, H7S (again) ...

I quite like, based on this article, Lord Young ...

"Frankly if I want to do something stupid and break my leg or neck,
that's up to me. I don't need a council to tell me not to be an idiot. I
can be an idiot all by myself."

 

The usual attention-grabbing nonsense that will result in little real
action. Saying this kind of stuff is very easy. Deciding which H&S-related
law or guidance to withdraw is much more difficult. After all, which
government minister would want to deal with a "MY CHILD DIED BECAUSE OF
TORY-SUPPORTED NEGLIGENCE" headline?

I must admit, I sat there rubbing my neard wondering exactly what /is/
H7S?

 

In SIRPip

Missed the shift key on the laptop ...

 

A neard? Part of the chin of a mature male, adjacent to the beard.

Anyway, that post conforms to the usenet rule on corrections.

 

Seven parts hydrogen to one part sulfur[1]. A weak but lighter than air
variant of hydrogen sulfide?


[1] yes yes.

 

Not too smelly but highly flammable, then.

I know, I know.

 

Of course, how foolish of me. I blame the senility.

It does, TYVM.
