I made a pail of it, as an experiment, from washings from cappings.
It smelled good. But I did some checking in the meantime, decided
it wasn't worth the risk, and it went down the drain.

Heh, heh...   I've sat in many a Sunday School class where the
students sat around and shared their opinions, rather than see what
the Bible said. It's an old classroom technique, known as "pooling
our ignorance."

It's not a good idea with a life and death matter like botulism. That's
why I want to reiterate the importance of checking with the food
science people who can give authoritive answers.

(In the Sunday School, it's an *eternal* life and death matter...)
