Sulphuric acid is not _that_ dangerous,
particularly if dilute.
Well, *any* acid is non-dangerous if sufficiently diluted. :-) Mind you, I
once had a long argument with a medical doctor who tried
to convice me that hydrochloric acid is toxic.
Which it is, in the sense that most "toxic" materials are. I wonder what he thought was in my stomach?
And I wonder what you think ulcers are? HCl *is* rather nasty stuff,
and stomach lining is rather special, to (among other things) withstand
that toxicity.
