OP Pickwickian made me quickly think of picric acid.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picric_acid
It's an innocent sounding name. But if you ignore the bottle of picric acid in the back of the store room, salts condense and crystalize in the bottle making it explosive and very sensitive to shock. Not no naive or innocent.
