That's why I keep latex gloves around. Makes those icky jobs easier.

Bingo!

Used to be latex gloves were insanely expensive. Now, you can get
many different kinds/grades at most any hospital/medical supply store
for a reasonable price. I've worn high quality left/right number
sized $1 ea clean-room gloves and these are as good as any I've used:

I pay $15 box, locally, and still consider it an excellent bargain.

immune systems working


I'm sure that does at the start, for the first 10 years, or 20, or 50,
and I agree 100% about that time, but there may an age where it starts
to work the other way.

Are there really kids who don't play in the dirt now. I had a sandbox
with no bottom, so when I got past the sane, there was only dirt.
(although I never went deeper than an inch, I got plenty of dirt and
grass and bushes elsewhere. Maybe that's why I'm not allergic to
anything. When I was 19, I was allergic to pHisoHex, the skin cleaner
with hexachlorophene, that now requires a prescription, but after a
year or so I got over it. It's good to prevent pimples, but not
shaving with an electric razor is even better. Growing a beard might
be beter yet, for boys.)


I'll ask one more time, then file you. Will you please turn off whatever it
is in your computer that makes it appear in a font that has to be approved
before being read?

His posts look fine here, Steve. Using Tbird 3.1.10. Of course, I keep
HTML turned off for Usenet. Try doing the same.
