LOL! Reminds me of Aunt Mina, who came to visit with uncle Sherman -- and one 
day when my Mother and grandmother were both out of the house, Aunt Mina 
helpfully took a box of SOS pads and cleaned all the "dirty" black pans.

My grandmother and mother were not amused when Mina proudly displayed the day's 
work of making the insides of those "dirty pans" nice and shiny bright -- now 
with all the Teflon removed.

Cheers,
Jim
