The message
from "Mike Lyle" contains these words: Have I been labouring under a serious misapprehension? No. Not very serious ones, anyway. Builder's lime is (or should be) completely unhydrated. (And is bad news for the skin.) It was always presumed that because of its caustic nature it would destroy bodies, and several murderers have come to grief because it in fact tends to preserve the body. Executed murderers were (unless this is UL) buried in a bed of quicklime until it was discovered that it didn't have the intended effect. It is still widely believed to get rid of bodies... -- Rusty Open the creaking gate to make a horrid.squeak, then lower the foobar. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |
