---A true addict woul imiedately swerve to a screaching halt without even thinking about traffic and jump off the bike over the fence, if there is a fence and check out the mushrooms, then see if he was seriously hurt or colided with a car . and this is the reason he would hve a moped in the first place.

When you go mushroom hunting and find some nice Chanterelles, but neither you nor your hunting partners care much about edibles, so you just leave the Chanterelles there.

When you carry KOH on you at all times- just in case.

When you have your own mushroom hunting theme song that plays over and over in your head as your out scouting.

"There's a man who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
With every move he makes another chance he takes
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow

Secret agent man, secret agent man
They've given you a number and taken away your name...
"

When a good friend makes fun of you mercilessly because you carry a basket out in the woods like Little Red Riding hood. (But you do it anyways.)

Potassium hydroxide.

Quote:

KOH - Potassium hydroxide in a 3-5 percent aqueous solution that you will frequently use as a mounting medium (often in combination with a stain like phloxine, below). Consult your pharmacist for help in obtaining this chemical, or ask the mycologist at a local university (be nice!). Chemistry departments often stock KOH, as well. KOH is also used to determine (macro) Chemical Reactions of mushrooms, so you will be killing two birds with one stone.



http://www.mushroomexpert.com/microscope_equipment.html

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_hydroxide


My friend carries it around with him because he really likes identifying Cortinarius and a lot of species have a colour changing reaction when you apply KOH to the tissue, so it is a useful identifying characteristic.
