If you read the warnings printed on the automotive chemicals that you
routinely use to clean brakes, carbs, engines, paints you'll find that
everything is toxic.
Persons that seldom use these chemicals are in very little danger of
becoming toxified by their use.
Persons using toxic chemicals on a daily basis eventually become toxified
by using so many.
As exemplified by BenT's recent postings you can see that the chemicals
can cause brain damage.
The toxic condition effects your olfactory centers and everything smells
like fish.
This condition will pass after a few weeks of not having contact with the
chemicals.
During the detoxificating period the person may loose their sense of
humor, randomly purchase Vanagons or any other German made vehicle and
wash their hands every ten minutes.
As long as the grease is under your fingernails you'll still be toxic.
The absence of the 'under the fingernail grease' is an indication that
something on your Vanagon is going to break soon.
This never ending cycle of off and on again toxic chemical use is well
documented by Mr. Goodwrench.
