    Maybe give NAD a call and ask them.

    try your pharmacy too, my kid wanted some to make slime a few months ago and we found some in a pharmacy, i think it was the 4th store we tried.

    there was a warning on the radio the other day about the potential toxic effects of boron, given the upswing in demand for slime for kids.

    i used to work with a guy who did physics in DCU who mentioned there was a few guys in there known as 'the boron morons' due to (alleged) damage done to them by excess exposure to boron.
