I have 3 varieties of liquid paper in my desk.  None of the 3 list
ingredients on the label.
	- Liquid Paper (LP) just for copies
	Water based.  No warnings about inhaling.
	- LP for pen & ink
	Warnings about inhaling.  Recommends use of LP thinner.
	- LP std. stuff
	Warnings about inhaling.  Recommends use of LP thinner.


I'm not chemically inclined, so can't postulate on what might be in the
U.S. version of LP.
