- I've come into possesion a quite large packet of silica gel, perhaps 6
- to 8 ounces, that once kept moisture out of an HP X-terminal during
- shipment. I would like to use this for keeping my photo equipment
- dry, especially now that California has gotten confused with Seattle.
- (Ie its been raining for a several weeks straight.) I understand that
- I can re-activitate the silica gel by putting it in the oven at x
- degrees for y hours. What are the accepted values of x and y?
