Awesome teachersTeachers have been getting a right kicking recently and it's not fair. So, let's hear it for the teachers who've inspired you, made you laugh, or helped you to make massive explosions in the chemistry lab. (Thanks to Godwin's Lawyer for the suggestion)

Mr Lewis Sadly Mr Lewis is no longer with us - he was attacked outside a pub and died back in '98 (his attacker was tried for murder but I'm not sure of the outcome) but he was without a doubt the best chemistry teacher ever.
Mr Lewis got suspended from teaching for a while because some of the senior year had been found distilling alcohol in the chemistry lab at lunchtimes. He told us the technique to blow up police cars (I've not tried it but let me dream that it works ok?). He used to snuff bunsen burners with his bare hand.
He could not function in the mornings without at least half a bottle of Scotch inside him but he made chemistry fun, exciting (or was that dangerous?) and definitely memorable. An absolute loon but a brilliant teacher.
Length? About 48 years
