In anticipation of blowing the dust off my lapidary saw to cut a few meteorites (it's been years since I last used it), I knew I would need to pick up some more denatured alcohol. So I popped into Home Depot, and to my surprise (or maybe not, in retrospect) they no longer sell it in CA because it's apparently been banned in this state. A little research suggests it was banned in CA a few years ago (probably for completely ridiculous reasons). So the question: what liquid do you Californians (and Canadians) now use to cut your meteorites? Isopropyl is still legal, so I suppose I could go that route. I'm pretty sure camp stove fuel is just ethanol (with a bitterant added) -- perhaps that can still be purchased in CA?  --Rob
