Jasper - Jasper - Jasper. For someone who openly stated that he is fearful
of being "attacked" on the board - don't you feel this response was just a

unfortunately it contains Tea Tree Oil, a well known hormonal mutagen
that can wreak absolute havoc on women's and men's bodies - both in
early and later stages of life, so perhaps your initial thought of
"what the hell" may have been more appropriate than at first presumed.

there are many alternatives to Tea Tree Oil products, perhaps one day
you might try them.
