My only excuse is the itching, it's makin' me kah-razeh.I still haven't figured out what the stuff looks like

red & shiny.gabrielle
tinyurl.com36snlOpen ↗ Good picture of the stuff. Once you
recognize it, you start seeing it everywhere! Dat's some
evil [censored]! I react so badly to it I look like someone with
leprosy. Tecnu is your friend. life-life-Open ↗
assist.com/tecnu.html When I lived in CA, I used to keep a
bottle of it in the shower and would rinse down with it
after every ride.
And watch for the cross-contamination. The resin may not
have gotten through your clothes. It may have gone from some
other surface (tires, frame, the dog, etc) onto your hands
and then to your legs hours later. I once had to scrub down
every surface in my house with alchohol after my dog ran
through a poison oak thicket. I was getting recurring
contamination for weeks afterwards until we figured it out.
It's devil's weed I tell ya!
Tom (itchy just thinking about it!)

Get yourself some Zanfel. Stuff works wonders.

nice, ;-)
get well soon, Bill
The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a
reflector, that is, the mind should give an immediate view
instead of an interpretation of the world.
