There seems to be a blank, required question.
Please remember: "Filtrate" is not a verb.
Write up your lab reports the way your instructor wants them, not the way your ex-instructor wants them.

Thanks, Madhatter for taking this on. I could see it was going to be a bit much for me this time round. I may yet get involved though.
I will sticky this thread. Keep the discussion going.

Blank spot in Secret Santa 2025 Form
Yes, I just noticed there was a blank spot below The Username field. Sorry I missed
it the 1st time around. That now asks for you PHYSICAL mailing address. You can
go back and enter this.

Thanks for organising this. Its my first time.
Water is dangerous if you don't know how to handle it, elemental fluorine (F₂) on the other hand is pretty tame if you know what you are doing.

If people are looking for glass bottles, vials or other containers, I still have many and will provide as many boxes of those as I can to those who
sign up in the US for a free gift. You never know what I might throw in to fill them. Mostly because I never know what I will find when packing
them...
Thanks for organizing this, MadHatter. I love doing things like this.

Thanks to @MadHatter, @j_sum1, and @Dr.Bob!
I just submitted my form, and I'm excited to participate again this year. I'm already coming up with some gift ideas.

I’ll be signing up again soon! I never got a reply from my SS last year, but the experience was well worth it. Look forward to participating again
this year!
It would be fun this year if we could make a collage of our hauls and put together a greeting card for next year.

I'm sorry for not replying. I never saw an email or U2U. Glad to hear you're participating again this year!

I want to thank MadHatter for the Holiday card that I just got. Given the Malls and stores already are putting up Christmas trees, this is the start
of the holiday season now. Thanks for putting me in a good spirit.

I was very happy to find a letter from MadHatter in my mail today! This is the third one I've received, and it has become a special tradition for me.
Thank you so much, MadHatter, I really appreciate it!
What is mind? No matter. What is matter? Never mind.

Allocations
This won't be done until Tuesday, November 4 after closing the form entries. The
t-shirt must've been done by somebody independently of Secret Santa. It's a nice
thought and touch for whoever did it though !

Yesterday, I discovered a postcard with his original humor from Mad Hatter(od šíleného kloboučníka,toho nejšílenějšího!) In my native
national language! Thank you very much Mad Hatter! (Šílený kloboučníku,ty nejšílenější!) and... "Šťastné svátky i Tobě! "

My favorite time of year!
I’m in!
Fashionable late, of course. Hopefully I get a gift this year.
I love this tradition. Some of the best additions to my lab have come from this!!!

Thank You to j_sum1 !
I was asked to do this and still feel honored. I've tried to explain this to my sister but I don't think she's forgiven me for setting off "charges"
and her mutts shit all over the carpet ! FUCK THE DOGS !
I'm glad to see there's a new participant as well as many from the past. It always excites me to see the participation. Granted there are those who
come in at the last minute but this is to be expected. I'll extend another day just to get those last minute entries. The more the merrier is my
opinion. And it's been done in the past so I'll continue the tradition. LET'S HAVE SOME FUN !
A P.S. More cards have been sent out ! I'm working on keeping up !

I’m usually one of those last minute entries. I look forward to this every year. Then somehow it slips my mind every October!
