Teaser Page

This is just a page to allow you a sneak peek into what we will be doing in Forensics.

It will not be like the CSI shows on television which are where crimes are solved in less than an hour, everyone is hyperattractive, and there are special instruments which, um, don't exist.

Look at the chapters we will be covering. If you are interested in that, welcome. If not, you have a nice year anyway. ;)
