No lie! I can't even throw the gum wrappers from my purse into the lab trash
can for fear someone will come by and look in there and accuse me of eating in
the lab. I can't imagine the commotion a coffee pot in the lab would create
with the safety people. I think Tim is right. Coffee pots were meant for
making things much hotter than paraffin should be. You gotta have the right
tools to do the right job.
Just my 2 cents worth
