  1. I have poison oak. This is the second time this year already. Ugh. How
    it got *through* my pants, I will never know.

    Clarification: said rash is on my lower legs.

    this summer.

    My only excuse is the itching, it's makin' me kah-razeh.

    I still haven't figured out what the stuff looks like when it's young.
    Poison ivy I can identify. Poison oak looks like any other young plant
    until it starts turning red & shiny.

    http://tinyurl.com/36snl 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.
    http://www.life-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!

    Get yourself some Zanfel. Stuff works wonders.

  12. You might have caght it from you clothes, shoes gloves etc.. The oils from
    this plant will stay up to a year on tissues, So you need to clean up your
    stuff realy well if you don not wan it to happen again !

    nice, ;-)

    get well soon,

    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.
