OK, "I got's t' know" - what in the world do you use 40# of p-p for? I

Potassium Permanganate has lots of uses.

It makes a great first aid disinefectant
It makes a water purifier for potable water
It makes a great foot wash for athletes foot
It makes a great fire starter when you add a bit of glycerine.
It also makes a beautiful rifle stock stain for blond woods such as
birch or maple.
