Thanks for the nice compliment, Jonathan. Actuallly, you could
probably achieve significant results by tossing a few Canadian
Silver dollars in the wash. Their weight would crush any bacteria
that happened to get in the way, and it would help the Canadian
economy:)

I did a quick check and found a few entries on resublimation that
might be of interest. Here's one on a paper by Isaac Asimov that
describes "The Endochronic Properties of Resublimated Thiotimoline":

Here's one on resublimated thiotourmaline:
"All tourmalines share the same basic hexagonal
boron-aluminum-silicate structure, roughly
(Na,Ca)(Li,Al,Mg,Fe,Mn)3(Al,Fe,Cr)6B3Si6O27(O,OH,F)4."
"However, it is incorrect to think of the tourmaline as a single
chemical compound, since it mates for life at a very early age.""

After a few decades, you'll probably forget where you put them:)
