If y'all haven't tried it, I still say banana is the best way to
immediately cool a superheated mouth.  Better than cream, milk, ice
cream, etc.  I don't know the scientific reason but I do know it works
(and much easier to carry along when you plan on a lot of tasting of
unknown chile goods).  If it's Hunan hands, washing them with toothpaste
seems to work best for me. 
YMMV (let me know if it does).  Deb in Houston
