I am glad you added that you were not present at the time of the pyramids. There were rumors that you might have been a stone cutter near the Nile back in the day, Lol.

It's always best to address rumors like that head on.

A great look back at some of the ramifications of marking the field. Super job on this research and write up to tell us all about it!

Another good one, Tim. Nice chemistry research, too. I do wonder if everyone caught on to lime’s downside in the 50s, though. My high school in CA used it early in the year to burn semipermanent lines on our practice field. An awful smell...

Some of the information I came across mentioned using it to burn the lines as you mention. Hopefully, you did not play or practice on it while during one of those rare rainstorms.
