I'll look into it. -- "Mineral oil is sometimes taken orally as a laxative. It lubricates feces and intestinal mucous membranes, and limits the amount of water removed from feces. Typically, mineral oil is effective within as little as six hours." from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_oil. Most drug stores and larger grocery and discount stores should have mineral oil sold for this purpose. -- Tom Sherman - Holstein-Friesland Bovinia The weather is here, wish you were beautiful |

See the legendary Best-Of-Craigslist entry relating to Olestra for a graphic depiction of what can happen; the physiologic effects in many instances are not dissimilar. You can get the "runs" from lubricating a Mavic hub with mineral oil? -- Tom Sherman - Holstein-Friesland Bovinia The weather is here, wish you were beautiful |
