[Land-speed] Non-LSR Hydraulic Hybrids

[Glen Barrett]

Skydrol, skydrol 500 A & B are used in commercial aircraft and are fire 
resistant hydraulic fluids. They will also remove paint, burn the hell out 
of your eyes, skin and melt plastics. It was Developed by Douglas aircraft 
and Monsanto (SP) chemical co.

Many people are allergic to it as far as skin contact. Also you MUST wash 
very good before taking a wizz or have a hard time telling the nurse you 
don't what is causing the burn and rash. I have been through a major failure 
of a skydrol test stand and was covered with the stuff from head to toe.

Not something I would want on a car. Could cause a lot of law suits.
