I'm forwarding this to these lists because I think it's a good example 
of how useful positive feedback is in encouraging project maintainers to 
 continue work on their applications.

Wow, I never guessed I would get such positive feedback from this program.
The experiments I picked were based on my experience teaching general
chemistry lab here, mainly in response to frustration with doing
experiments in an actual lab with freshmen, so I'm happy to hear people
are using it, especially at the K-12 level.  I posted a new version today
that includes a spectrophotometry experiment, but only on Freshmeat and
SourceForge.  Is there a site for educational software?

(Sorry for the delay in responding -- I'm teaching organic synthesis lab
and supervising undergarduate research this summer, and I'm supposed to be
working on my dissertation too :)
