Our school system is putting these out in all of the schools at the
recommendation of the County Health Department in response to H1N1.  Our
Fire Department expressed reservations but they decided to go ahead with
it.  I assume it is an alcohol based product because of the fire
department concern.

I read an article where a child was poisoned by alcohol sanitizer
recently.  Its only a matter of time before a child dies, or they start
getting the swift idea of lighting it.  My own step-son was required by
the school to bring a bottle to begin the year.  This is a clear example
of bringing an item to market, and not enough controls.  Everyone thinks
sanitizer is so great.  

Anyone else being requested to bring it to school?
