[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had no idea that you should NEVER mix ammonia and bleach until the first year of law school (I was 25). My torts professor used it as an example of something that any "reasonable person" would be assumed to know. It freaked me out because I clean with both of those things. I could have poisoned myself.[/quote] For some reason, I knew since I was a child that you shouldn't mix cleaning products. I thought EVERYONE knew that. In my twenties, I was working at a restaurant. A coworker was using dish soap and Clorox spray cleaner together. I was nearly in a panic, couldn't convince her that it was dangerous, and I fled the kitchen certain she was killing everyone. It wasn't until YEARS later that I learned the problem is specifically bleach and ammonia. And then I was like "Ammonia? Who uses ammonia?" Didn't realize it's in window cleaner and other common cleaners. [/quote] Better to be cautious![/quote]
