Today has me believing in Friday the 13th. Got a chip in our windshield this morning and then a customers snowmobile hubs was welding caught on fire. Hubs pulled it out of the garage before that burnt. Now we have to pay for the snowmobile. For joy.

Sounds like Franster has a case of Lostitis, aka Walking Murphy's Law! "If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all..." :facepalm:

yup! frannie's luck ain't worth 2 cents ..................

~~~~~ @ all and flying by! ;)

You probably already have something like this Catt, http://www.uab.edu/ohs/images/docs/chem/chem_manual.pdf ,but starting on Pg 62 is a huge list of chemicals with their packing codes. It covers just about everything that I've ever had to get rid of. I'll be taking most of the current chemical with me. Which is nice, 'cause the packing and manifest requirements for us are a PIA.

Puggles is a cutie, even if he is doing a weird stairs thing.


Another storm Fran? :(

We might get some snow or ice on Monday. i thought maybe we'd dodge it this year- though we still might.

Glad the GS air seems to have non-scary filler, Katya. Whew.

Good morning y'all. :)

DuPont uses EPA hazardous waste numbers (not sure if they're specific to DuPont or not :blink: i.e. corrosives are D002). But we also have to fill out physical (flammable, etc) hazards and 'target organs' for toxics (respiratory system, skin, eyes, etc) for each chemical; so I'll have to go through MSDSs to figure all that out <<sigh>> :D

Why the hell don't they have computers for that? Punch in a name/number, it prints your paperwork. Sounds awful laborious to have to do it manually...

Preachin' to the choir :D

But then again if you have a 'mixed waste stream' (which most of our waste is), you may have a flammable chemical in the waste but at a low level so the waste isn't flammable - it gets confusing, even after 25 years ;)

Are you going to use the CAS numbers, IMO it's an easier lookup that going through the MSDS. Been there, done that. I have a spread sheet with the Hazard codes for each of our chemicals (with two different nomenclatures) though it's stil not what we use when we need to waste a chemical. sigh.. It's a PIA

But not as awful as having the sled catch on fire. At least Hubby was able to save the garage- that would have been even more awful. what a day, Fran. ((hugs))
