      No – the only danger in my work is the bacteria themselves and some nasty chemicals. Fortunately I haven’t hurt myself (or possibly more importantly anyone else)…. yet.

      I don’t work with any dangerous weapons or explosives, but there are plenty of harmful chemicals that I use in my lab work, though not anywhere near my banana plants. I haven’t ever hurt myself in the lab, there are too many safety rules that are very closely monitored to allow us to do anything dangerous.
