I got into a little bit of it, but was lucky enough to get out with just a mild case on my fingers. A friend of mine and his little sister were hospitalized by either poison ivy or oak when I was a kid. Seems he'd started a little fire down in a creek bed and was burning whatever vegetation he could pile onto it -- some of which was the offending plant. They were both standing over it, breathing the fumes and smoke that rose from the fire, and it got into their eyes, throats, mouths, and just about everywhere else on their bodies. Screwed them up pretty badly for weeks. -- Walt -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
