Bruce, I'm a little unclear. Are the findings related to the subject of the investigation or to tangential issues? If part of the investigation, I use common...
Bruce and Terry, Bruce: Have you tried the Comparative TimeLine? If so where did it fall short? Terry: Can you supply an example of a "common cause analysis...

Geoff, I can't help, but my feeling is that if you need help and you can't find it elsewhere, try us. Good luck. Take care, Bill Corcoran Mission: Saving...
I googled the compound as well and added "MSDS" to the criteria. I got a lot of hits too but it was for either arsenide or calcium. I searched quite a few and...
