Useful thing to know about Accent:  if you hike or 
travel in rattlesnake country, can make an emergency
temporary venom deterrent--breaks down protein, and
rattlesnake venom is mostly (or all--can't recall,
am not a biochemist myself) protein.  Recommended
method of application:  mix into a paste with saliva,
pack into slashed wound.  It'll slow down the effects
if you act quickly enough.

before specimen identifying field trip in science
class.)
