    The last thing I need is Snooki chasing me down the road because my chain smells like a pickle. I'll stick to Simple Green.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    Re: Chain pickle

    I know I will regret posting this, but pickles also are suitable short-term illumination sources. See

    http://openmaterials.org/2010/02/01/...ce-in-pickles/

    Not sure if they will work this way after cleaning a chain first however.
