then drain and let dry . Bleach is chlorine and sodium and it brakes down very quickly and can also be neutralized with tap water conditioner .

Toytech,
I'm leaning towards boiling the LR since its dead rock now. No need to think about neutralizing the chlorine from the bleach or vinegar.
Just curious, what happens when the LR is boiled?
I'll boil the LR outside using the side burner of my BBQ. Do you know, if 'whatever' is in the rock or gases produced will ruin my wife's pot?
Thanks!
