gee, rich, you should hang out with the fellas that think urine (your own,
so it's antiseptic; so they claim, i havent tried it nor wish to) can be
used to neutralize venom/stings in the
field, since most acidic substances do, if absolutely nothing else is
availble <g>
personally, i dont go out hiking w/o a good first aid kit, but some ppl out
there are wacko with home brew "remedies" ;)
