Recently while going thru email I came across this article and wanted to share with you for numerous reasons. One main one being, is that as treasure hunters, we have all agreed to leave a place as clean if not cleaner than when we show up. To pick up garbage to help improve the beauty of the thiings that we touch. This is information that could prevent a horrible accident.
Another reason being, which is equally if not more important, you can copy this and email to friends and family and have this more widely looked upon for the safety of all those that we love and care about. Please do not let this stop, as to prevent anyone from being seriously injured or killed!

IMPORTANT WARNING!
A plastic bottle with a cap. A little Drano. A little water. A small piece of foil.
Disturb it by moving it or shaking it.... and BOOM!!
People with sick minds, or kids who can't fathom the extent of the danger in which they are placing people are putting Drano, tin foil, and a little water in plastic drink bottles and capping it up - leaving it on lawns, in mail boxes, in gardens, on driveways, etc. just waiting for someone to pick it up with the intent of putting it in the garbage, but you might not make it. If you do, you may be maimed for life.
If the bottle is picked up and is shaken, even just a little - in about 30 seconds it builds up enough pressure from the gas generated from shaking it to explode forcefully enough to remove some of your extremities or cause death. The liquid that comes out is boiling hot as well.
Carefully check plastic bottles that may be lying in your yard, street gutter, etc. that you didn't put there without first examining them for this potential danger!!
No fingers left and other serious effects to your face, eyes, etc.
Please ensure that everyone that may not have email access are also informed of this.

Though most of us may have never met, I believe that we are all one big family and need to watch out for one another and for each others families. God bless each and everyone and please have safe and happy hunts!
