# I've found out it's a legal standard, BS 1970:2006
and standards documents aren't given away free, and are only held in certain libraries. If I want to read BS 1970:2006 (Hot water bottles manufactured from rubber and PVC) in the hopes of discovering the reasoning behind it, I have to pay £80, or worse, go to Stoke on Trent.
