How Bleach Works

This story is neat. It shows that, even in a substance as well known and widely used as chlorine bleach, some of the ways that it works to disinfect are not fully understood.

Sometimes, kids get the idea that all the simple things are completely understood. It's nice to see confirmation that there are still many mysteries in the world of science.

No matter what others say, I think it is still interesting and useful maybe necessary to improve some minor things
