5. Back in '73, I worked for a United Technologies |

company in the little red-neck hillbilly town of Andrews, IN. My job, right out of high school, was to mix Sulfuric, Hydrochloric, and Nitric Oxide in a water solution to brighten newly forged brass fitting blanks. The stuff boiled all by itself for quite a while. When it started losing its effectiveness, the boss showed me how to mix it with soda to neutralize it, then flush the whole thing down the sewer. Yuck!
