O.K, here is a theory of mine, let me know if this makes
any sense.
Lets say I cut a bunch of peppers and rub my hands all
over them, then I go to wash my hands. If I wash my hands
in warm or hot water isn't there a good chance that my
poors will open and trap some 'hot stuff' in there ?
on the other hand if I wash my hands in cold water first,
I can get rid of most of the 'hot stuff' before, then wash
my hands in hot water later. >>
If you want, but I recommend wearing rubber gloves of some sort. Gloves are
the first line defense against "HUNAN HAND".
