oops!

If you MUST smell an unknown, open the container and waft the fumes towards you with your hand, never sniff directly at an unknown jar of stuff!

Oh, too late, eh? < G > Luckily it only caused those symptoms and they went away.

>So Friday, like the double dork dim wit, I noticed a "sample" jar of either crude or heavy fuel oil. Being curious, I opened it to see if it smelled like motor oil. My face flushed, my gums got warm, my stomach turned upside down.
