Today's afternoon nap........
I'm in the process of etching a plate.  What's different in the process is that instead of dipping the plate into acid, I'm squirting it out of a squeeze bottle! Every time the acid hits the plate, i let it sit for a few minutes, then apply some more.  Something happens and I notice that the acid lands on my hand and it starts to eat the gloves that I'm wearing!! I panic and try to find someone to help me, but no one is around.  I put my hand under the faucet and carefully try to remove the remaining glove.  I remove the glove and notice that half of all my fingers stayed in the glove!! but I'm not bleeding, which was really strange.  At this point, I'm running around this room not knowing what to do and there's no one around to help.  I decide to remove the unattached  fingers in the glove.  I clean them off with water and decide to carry them off to the hospital in hopes of putting me back together.
