Man Attacks Stain in Trousers...Destroys Apartment
Mon Oct 13,
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian man may wish he had stuck with having dirty trousers after an imaginative attempt to purge a stubborn paint stain on them destroyed his apartment.
The unnamed Muscovite added a liter of petrol to his washing machine to help dissolve the stain, Itar-Tass news agency reported Monday, but the ensuing explosion wrecked his kitchen and demolished two internal walls.
Moscow police confirmed there had been an explosion in a south-eastern Moscow apartment, but would not comment on the cause.
Moral of the Story: Stay away from washing machines.
(works for me!)

Eva, I like your theory better than mine: keep the petrol in the car.
