OT: Attn Pyros

I just discovered that those 'waterless' hand cleaners on the market now are friggin flammable as hell.

I just did a tour of my job w/ one of those insurance loss prevention guys and he had a fit that all our teachers had some in their classrooms.

So, I, of course, had to check it out. I put about a quarter sized puddle of it in a frying pan on the stove and lit it. It took flame immediately and burned a very clear blue. The quarter sized puddle burned for over 3 minutes.

I figured as much. The alcohol smell coming from those things reak enough to be flamable.

Oso, are you going to be aiming at anyone in particular?

Question, I have heard silly string is highly flammable, true or false?

I've heard that too. We need some objective evidence. Oso, film anything with the cat.

With the right retainer I'll represent anyone. Including those who torch their kittens.

What??? no pro bono for a kung fu buddy?

Besides, how am I supposed to know that you shouldn't put that stuff in a Super Soaker and tape a sparkler to the end of it????? Where's the cautionary statement for that? It just says keep away from fire or flame?

I can take you case on a 1/3 contingency. The companies have failed to provide adequate warnings as to the dangers of Sparklers and the waterless hand-cleaners. Due to an unfortunate accident with Super-Soaker, Sparklers and some waterless soap your entire cat collection was tragically incinerated and you have suffered pecuniary loss, mental anguish and emotional distress which are permanent in nature.

Yeah, I think we can get them to settle.
