We tested the white lightning on the lab rats, and so forth. We also manufactured explosives. And one of the incidents in that time was that there was a county agent meeting at the high school and they asked us to vacate the lab. And we warned them that in this big galvanized tub, there were explosive materials, and they shouldn’t touch it. And of course some idiot did touch it. It went up to the ceiling, came down on this camel’s hair coat and I got called to the principal’s office. But that was sort of incidental to the freedom and to explore in terms of the creatures that we had for the biology class, and so forth. But what I remember most about Ms. Petri and her introduction of us to the world around us was a trip not very far out of the town where we were in a small bus and we just pulled off the highway onto a side road.
