Until the advent of the clock-radio-tv-telephone-cassett-player-food-
processor-microcomputer-4-cylinder-gas-miser-microwave, I think it
should be left up to the considerate applyer to warm the stuff up in
his/her { hands | mouth | <use imagination!!> }.

Yow! I have a great idea! Better say it quick before I figure out what's
wrong with it! ( large smiley face here )

Have you seen those mini hot plates for keeping your coffee mug warm?  About
100 watts.  Haven't tried one myself, so I don't know if they would heat the
lube *too* hot (if so, there are ways around that).  Probably would want to
only heat the stuff just before use, not 24hr/day.

Seriously, some people warm their massage oil by setting the little bottle
in a pan of *hot* water half an hour ahead of time.  I think I've seen
baby bottle warmers,  too.

You prob'ly think I'm silly to take this engineering challenge seriously,
but I personally am *real* sensitive to cold, and just *thinking* of
putting cold lube into sensitive places makes me shudder!


Love and Light! (Except where prohibited by law)


PS: soc.singles?  Forgive me for missing the obvious, but what is "soc"?
(social studies?  sociology?  socializing?  society and you?
	... just curious!)
