Reminds me of the time when the high school kids were picking chiles for
me a few years back out in the fields.  They were all daring one another
to try one of the Red Savina(R).  The first one tried it and promptly
went into SEVERE discomfort, eating grass, apples, well water, ANYTHING
he could get his hands on to try and help the burning.  You could see
the other kids all looking at each other with amazement, hearing them
say to themselves 'it can't be all THAT hot'.  They ALL had to try it
themselves.  Sigh... like my daddy used to tell me:  the burnt finger
teaches best ;-)
