i was disappointed to read recently dr karl "debunking" the myth of (what we
call in our family) curry-bottom - i.e. the misery one can experience while
on the loo the day after eating something unusually hot. dr karl is mostly
right but sometimes wrong - everyone _i_ know thinks he's totally wrong on
this one. the only way to avoid curry-bottom is to eat it every day so your
tender parts are used to it, otherwise you _will_ get the good old "ring of
fire". like your friend ;-)
