That's all good to know. Thanks, BadThad, I appreciate that answer. I'm on a constant search for things I didn't know before, 65 years worth and counting now.A pleasure for me being able to talk with other chemists here too.

Addition to being a money collector of all sorts..LOL, i also am a big time
Gun collector, have a huge commercial safe that was to big to store in the
House so it wound up in the garage,but had to double time the "dryer
Element" every week just to stay ahead of the rust demon !

But here in Las Vegas the humidity averages between 7 and 15% most of
The time, so there are never any concerns or wet feelings..LOL
