Awesome , thanks very much for posting these!

I have a question for him, if you wouldn't mind passing it on...

In one of the messages you forwarded, Tom said:

My question is, why wouldn't a dilute solution of liquid HCl

(hydrochloric acid) be better?

I bought a bottle of food grade 10% liquid HCl from an online supplier,

and was thinking that this would be much better than all of that citric

acid - especially since most people in the states are already low on HCl

production...

Someone (on this list) seemed reasonably sure that the 10% liquid HCl

would also be a 1:1 ratio for activation, but I'm not absolutely certain

that is correct...

Anyway, I hope you'll try to get Tom's opinion on this...

Thanks again for posting these Q & A's - very informative.
