Ok,
We have discussed how to remove the male condoms used by a number of
pilots as part of their relief systems. Now, how does everybody remove
the remaing adhesive? Paint thinner, acetone, only kidding. But, how
do you get that struff off. Soap and water does not seem to do the
trick. What is the secret?

Tom:
The active ingredient in most adhesive removers is Toluene. This can
be purchased in most hardware stores by the pint and possibly by the
gallon as well. Ace Hardware carries it in pints and it is labeled
Toluol. Very effective stuff, but I strongly recommend using it
outside to avoid the vapors. Also I would use PVC gloves to avoid
absorbing it through your skin.
Well that's helpful. Oh, and it's teratogenic (induces birth defects)
too, so wear a condom.
:-p

You understand of course that when Tom's neighbors see him outside
pouring a fluid on his parts while wearing funny gloves and a
respirator, the police will be along soon to assist him with his problem.
