Re: [pct-l] poison oak remedies

[Bighummel@aol.com]

Hey guys, back in my field geology days we used lava soap (a rather abrasive 
bar soap).  It is cheap and worked well for all of us in the hot back hills 
of Santa Barbara.  We would go out on a Saturday for all day and take a 
shower later that night, possibly 8 to 10 hours after exposure, and never had 
a problem.  

I'm not sure that you need the expensive stuff.
