Do you know what Nitrogen triiodide is?

Takes off more fingers than you think.

Also, after reading the article, most people don't know how to purify water properly with iodine and it's probably been causing problems. There are other ways to get iodine, you know.

A bunch of eh hikers are probably pouring the unused iodine out and damaging the environment, too. Depends what the stream chemistry says, too.
