Richard asked: <The ultimate question is should we sell some for these materials
that are considered dangerous? How dangerous? And how to sell?>

I had (and still have) the same problem here in Germany with my Fine Print
Studios, by which I sell all that stuff. When I got started several years ago,
my main supplier of chemicals wanted me to sign a paper (remain declaration) in
which I declare that all chemicals I puchase from him I will either use myself,
or my customers will sign the same declaration which I have to keep (Don't know
how long...). This way, german law hopes the cyanide can be tracked to the
murderer... This declaration my customers have to sign only once with the first
order. This order has to be sent by snail mail or by fax. From then on they can
also order by phone.

Safety data sheets are available on request, the safety warnings are written on
the package lables.

<In all reality, there isn't a whole lot of profit in selling these compounds.
It's more of a philosophical issue. >

How true!
