Re: Alcoholic Visine

and on a more general note,
someday, when you least expect it, somebody brings along a kid - or
an analphabetic.
you should NEVER, let me repeat NEVER keep potentially dangerous
stuff in something other than the original package, and safely tucked
away. it's also the only way to make sure the package does not
detoriate from the content and has the appropriate safty closing.
if something bad happens, you'll be accountable for any damages that
might follow (any idea what a week on IC costs?) and your insurence
might not even cover it when it follows from such a stupid mistake.
Plus you might be accountable under criminal law, since keeping
dangerous fluids in an impropriate bottle could ammount to criminal
negligence (sp?).
sorry for the off-topic rant.
I never clean my strings anyway. what do I know?
