A pub or off-licence might be a better source of IPA.

IPA.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India_Pale_Alehopefully not for the IPA we're on about ......

I honestly can't see why they wouldn't sell you IPA it is one of the most benign chemicals I have ever used.

It's a good idea in the current climate to keep *any* display of knowledge of chemistry/physics to yourself.

[Jethro]

It wasn't they wouldn't sell it to me. They claimed they *could*n''t stock it, as it was "banned". The same story I got from a local chemists too, strangely enough. I was very tempted to take my two tins into them, and offer to supply them myself !

ATEOTD, I think it's a symptom of the changing landscape of society. When I was growing up, and into science, all my books suggested your "local chemist" as a source of various chemicals ... ammonia, various crystals, formaldehyde ... and the chemist was just that.

Now they just shift boxes :-(

I have no working knowledge of chemistry, but anyone with a library card can get more access to "dangerous" information than they'd ever need.

Perhaps if the government arrested anyone who walked into a public library just on the off-chance they might be trying to make an offensive weapon, rock cakes for example, the world would be a safer place.

Next on the agenda: ban science and physics lessons in school, and teach the kids nothing about the most common religion in their own country in case it offends a minority somehow...

I forgot to say, IPA is/was used to clean the glass on cockpit instruments when I was working.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Jethro saying something like:

Bullshit. The more Talibugger sympathisers that blow their hands off in the preparation of backpacks the better. Ideally they'd find dangerously incomplete articles on making their bum bombs.
