I am become bleach, the destroyer of germs

This is the outcome of a morning spent cleaning toilets.

People unfamiliar with the quote alluded to in the title should consult Wikipedia's account of the Trinity nuclear test where the great not-quite-right rendition of J. R. Oppenheimer of a fragment of the verse 11:32 of the Bhagavad-Gita is reproduced in context.

A thorough discussion of the quote can be found in an article of James A. Hijiya in the Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, vol. 144, no. 2.
