I believe LLCA and Billund are now test using a new substance, but LLW is
still on MEK.
I can't remember what this substance is called, but it's very tightly
controlled - apparently it contains an element that is also used in
'Rohypnol' - the not very nice drug that has been used for even more not
very nice uses (I'm not going to say what as this is a family site but I'm
sure you know what I mean).
Talking to one of the modellers, I was told that it's so tightly controlled
that the parks have to track it all - if a modeller needs some, he/she has
to sign it out on a sheet.
I'm guessing this substance probably isn't available to the general
public(!) but I may be wrong.
