A chemistry question for Sylvia Else

[Ext User(Gordon Lightfoot III)]

Dear Sylvia.

Yesterday I was driving home from work when my car stopped for no
reason whatsoever and nothing electrical worked. I checked the battery
and it seemed 2 of the cells were dry. I was in the middle f nowhere
and had no water, so I peed into the battery and the electrics
returned immediately.

I once called the NRMA out when I had a flat battery but he didn't pee
in it, so what's so special about me pee?

Rather foolish of you to go to the middle of [implied word omitted]
nowhere with no water.

Your reasoning appears flawed. There's nothing here to suggest anything
special about your output.

I beg to differ. His pee may be highly acidic. This could be a sign of
diabetes or dehydration - both of which are a concern.

He was prolly sensible enough to carry water, so didn't need to. I'll
remember it as a trick if I have a similar problem - it might actually
work, I've not tryed it. Hmmm, concentrated sulfuric acid on the
battery if the water boiled out. Be carefull you don't circumcise
yourself doing this :-)

Sylvia, are you really Gordon? I fail to see where there is an implied word.

I doubt it.

Maybe you could be really special and pee off.

If he had a berocca an hour before doing this would his battery glow?

Yes, yellow that is, and if he ate asparagus an hour before the battery
would stink :)

My criticism lay in the experimental method. Since the NRMA guy didn't
pee into the flat battery, we don't know what the result would have
been, therefore no inferences can be drawn.

Must be a needle dick to get it in the battery hole.

I have re-read his post 5 times and can't see where it says he fucked
the battery.

Interesting factoid: the gene that determines whether asparagus urine
smells is in the smeller, not the pee-er.
