Lol, Yeah I would totally geek out on it, I see it as part of the fun!

aerobic vs anaerobic... is that for bacteria? I know about it in a water waste environment.

It can be. Lacto & Pedio are types of bacteria. Aerobic simply means 'in the presence of oxygen', anaerobic, 'in the presence of no oxygen'.

ETA: I may not be able to follow what you're talking about, but I knew it was salt that turned her green. OOO! OOO! Mr. Kotter! Mr. Kotter!

<nerdy voice while pushing up glasses>Not exactly. The green (verdigris) isn't caused by the salt, but the speed of the chemical reaction is change by the presence of different electrolytes. The salt water & the higher concentrations in the humidity caused by the salt water act as a strong electrolyte, thus speeding up the chemical reaction, causing her to develop the green patina much more rapidly than if she were in the middle of Kansas, even though she would've still turned green albeit at a much slower rate.</nerd> heh heh heh SNORT </nerd> </nerd> dammit, why isn't this working </nerd> </nerd> oh... yeah... that's right. I forgot I'm just a nerd & can't turn that off.

Edit: I love you, Ocey... please don't hurt me :)

My attention span isn't that long. I have to reply as I see the posts. And if I hit multi-quote and save it until the end I would forget what I was going to say.

ETA: I will try to remember to do it in the future. Don't hold your breath.

Oh yeah, you've said that before...I think. ;)

As far as I'm concerned it was the salt. Who sits around timing patina anyway?
