Are there any chemicals that are *not* OK to dump into skimmer w/pump running? Acid, maybe?

I don't think anyone on the forum puts acid in the skimmer. It may be fine since it is diluted so quickly (esp. if you pour slowly), but is just seems a lot more prudent to put it into the return stream coming into the pool.
