Going over the last batch of information from the list (for which again
many thanks) with Carmen today, we stumbled over what may be answer (or
an answer) to the problem. Al says
> dichromate should be around 3%. yours is way too high.

Both Carmen and I took that to mean 6 *grams* of *dry* ammonium
dichromate, which in 70 ml water etc. would be more than 6%, not the 3%
advised above. Is it possible this means 6 cc of a dichromate solution?
(The formula she used, BTW, came from Klaus's printout, which could have
been subject to similar misinterpretation.)
Hopefully,
Judy
