Do you even know quick dry cement has a 'chemical burns' tag on the bag, poindexter? I would surmise from your comment above that is something you are gd clueless on. Yet you feel the need to jump all over it.

Jeezus fing krist, dude. You are putting some pretty good jack--- points on the board there, and early too. But in your favor, I wouldnt expect a model to know **** from shinola about concrete.....

Cement increases the pH of a solution, so it is a base.

I've dealt with it a lot in my line of work while dealing with borehole abandonment and decontamination fluid.

Good to see you using your education instead of arguing law.

The funny thing is that lad's distinction without a difference made 93 think it wasnt caustic. So not only did 93 ever fing bother to look up the acid-like properties of cement, he is now jumping to the conclusion from lad's inane distinction that there is no caustic issue with cement because cement is a "base". This is better than comedy.

93 keeps leaping from dumb*** conclusion to dumb*** conclusion without ever attempting to actually find stuff out on his own. I thought Rice people were taught to be a tad more critical and objective. And quite not as blind.

lad's comment that 'it is a base', while accurate, simply is amazingly misdescriptive -- I think lad either thinks that a good base burn is better than a good acid burn, or that base burns are a lesser issue than acid burns, or he just tossed the issue that cement is a base out there for the ***** and giggles without regard to the scope of caustic properties of base like cement.

Naw - caustic burns can be severe regardless of the acid or base. I was simply making sure the correct term was being used.

I mean, if you asked me if I heard about acid milkshakes, I would have said no. If you had asked me if I heard about cement milkshakes I would have said yes, because there were reports of them being used. Or heck, even if you had said caustic milkshakes, I would have said yes. Cus, you know, language matters.

I actually thought you might have been referencing the debunked milkshake poisoning at Shake Shack, since the Portland incident had purportedly involved Portland.
