I was talking about the fact that mparker762 said he had a green norton once, and suggesting a way to keep nortons, which are prone to stinking, clean without the use of bleach.

I have always thought that a nice aspect of this forums is that because many of the people here seem to be more intelligent than the average schmuck, it provides a broader knowledge base.

Do you see me cracking on ForestryProf for measuring tree's boobs?

I asked her what in particular she was learning and she said that she never knew that trees had breasts. I apparently looked confused so she turned to a portion of the translated manuscript where the author was reporting the height to the trees breast. I started laughing, explained the mistake, and she proceeded to argue with me for the next 20 minutes explaining why I must be wrong.

Next time read back for a little context chief.

Seriously though, I wonder if you could just add a little Triclosan to the water??
If it won't eat a dish rag left in it for a week then I think a stone would be ok..

Thank you and good night.

Yeah, I read the whole thread... sure, we all like to be among intelligent people but

I was implying that you can shave more than your face - which may have been in bad taste but I thought it's not as bad on a shaving forum

No need to thank me
