ethidium bromide disposal

Paul:

	What is the feeling of the community regarding the actual risk involved
in disposing EtBr?  Are we being too paranoid?  Why doesn't Merck Index include
more warnings?  Isn't dilution through "dumping" in the sink with a lot of
flushing a better way to dispose of EtBr?  Perhaps you could write an addendum
to your TIBS summary.  

	(BTW, your summary of this BBS is a great service.  Thanks!)
