Talk to a chemist...should be a way to neutralize the chemicals. I work for
a biochemical company and whenever they need to dispose of nasty

who had cut a hole in his basement floor. That's where he poured all his old
chemistry as he figured they were chemicals and this way they'd be going
backto nature. John Hermanson Camtech Photo Services, Inc. 21 South Lane,
