Well.................

Out in my neck of the woods, it is quite common to see 2 or 4 gallons of
Muriatic in the pool shed or in the garage of many homes. I personally
keep a bottle of Hydrogen Peroxide in the medicine cabinets in my home.
And right now, I have two gallons of Muriatic acid in a wooden storage
cabinet in my garage, right next to my two automobiles, and have had so
for going on 11 years now.

I can't ever recall of a single incident regarding these materials 
during the
time I have lived in southern California and southern Arizona, and that
amounts to over 40 years. You have to remember that the HCI that we
call Muriatic acid only 30 Baume, and the H2O2 is only a 3% solution.

To each his own. But I pleased that I don't have to have that nasty
brown stuff around the house anymore.
