I highly recommend Schachnovelle by Stefan Zweig

Excellent idea

If you are using household concentrations you won't generate enough chlorine gas to be harmful in a ventilated area, like outside. If you put it in a bag and huff it you are going to have a bad time, but enough to cause damage can be tossed into a mason jar, shaken, and thrown pretty safely.

The acid makes it rust in seconds instead of days though, instantly visible and quite permanent damage.

Well, a 1:1 mixture of chlorine bleach and vinegar should damn near instantly and permanently corrode the steel. Don't breathe the fumes, but I have toyed with the idea of a squirt gun filled with instarust.

It depends on the school, but here in the US it is generally expected that the majority of students return home for the summer. Most universities have housing available over the summer but it is limited and generally reserved for those with disabilities and graduate students who are expected to attend the school for 4+ years. Most college students only go for a year or two.

88v would be well in the territory of a brownout, but according to that graph you are sitting comfortably within 10% of 115v, with one exception. This isn't bad, if you viewed the graph with the y axis range set from 0v-140v it would look nearly flat. I wouldn't worry about it, the UPS will handle the small transient stuff.

The silicon die could easily chip a tooth as well, the stuff is insanely hard.

There is, quarter the log then cut boards from alternating sides of the resulting right angle.
