I wonder if my shirt contains bleach right now.
I washed once a long time ago with a little bleach. I hope its still not in
the shirt.


All cotton production uses chlorine bleach, it is found in everything
white unless indicated to be certified organic. There are about 4
other pesticides found in all cotton. Your shirt would absolutely
test positive for chlorine bleach. I have no doubt about it. If you
think your sarcasm is needed in a discussion, it may be best to not be
in a discussion. Facts are not theories.


Except that Chlorine bleach readily evaporates...

It's why it has to be constantly replaced in swimming pools.
