Attention retards

I must say ..I'm new to the whole laser thing..I just bought a 1.6 Watt kit from jayrob and I have saftey in mind I ended up spending more on 3 pairs of good saftey glass then I did o the laser itself. And my college engineering buddies have zero clue as to how dangerous lasers can be. They play with so cheap green laser on campus late at night and think they are cool. Thankfully its a 5wm according to the label. But they just don't seam to understand that they can really get hurt. Personally I don't trust any lasers label on power. I never have. I love the quote I saw on this forum that read...you can look into a high power laser twice...once with each eye.
