For your notebooks you should be using PEN and all data and information
taken during lab should be in the notebook and not the manual or another
sheet of paper Do NOT write anything that should be in the notebook in
the manual or on another paper, even if you intend to copy it to the 
notebook
before leaving lab.  That is not allowed.  Any information taken during 
lab that
is pertinent to the lab goes directly in the notebook.

Your reports can be typed but don't have to be.  However, they should be in
PEN.  Do NOT use pencil.

If you make a mistake in the notebook or report simply put a single line 
through
the mistake and write the correct number, unit, etc. next to the data 
crossed out.
Do NOT erase.  Do not scribble over the mistake. Do NOT use whiteout.

We will deduct points for these things.

Also, I'm still getting reports of people not handing in the carbons at
the end of lab.  As I stated before in lecture and labs, and it's in the 
syllabus,
you MUST sign and date each page and have the TA sign and date the pages
and you give your carbon pages to the TA before leaving lab.  If you do not
do this you will have to repeat the exp.
