Its folks that jump peoples sh*t that ruins forums. Youre way off base here. Regardless of how many guys Ive helped in these sort of sites, (and thanks, you guys, for pointing that out, Im flattered!) theres always a reply like yours, Paco. It is YOU, sir, who feels a bit awkward and has asked for help. If you really ARE sincere, try going back and rereading my answer to you, this time without feeling like you goofed, which I didnt think you did, or that I was answering in a condescending tone, which I wasnt. See? Nice post, wasnt it? I was simply downplaying the situation so you wouldnt feel as though you screwed anything up, as too many in our field lead you beginning guys to believe that this is all rocket science, which of course, it is not. Also, I did not insinuate that you were dumb, but I did insinuate...that the skin could be left in a pickle, as that is a safe place for it,so you could time your tanning process accordingly. It was only YOU who knew it was already in the tan, and it was only YOU who knew you had to go to work, not me. And the real kicker of it all, I once knew a very nice man whom we all referred to as Paco, who passed away, and your online name caught my eye.
