<p class="MsoNormal">Good evening Professor Pounds,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I wanted to know if it was
acceptable to white-out mistakes in the lab notebook, or must
I re-copy everything?</p>

<p>Not in the lab notebook. Think of the lab notebook as a "record"
of everything that went through your brain and everything that
happened in the lab. To make a correction in the lab notebook
mark through the material and put your initials beside it - then
place the correct material some place after that.</p>
<p>Now, on the report forms you can white-out and correct as much as
you want.<br>
