people from because science. I just know your going through a hard time right now, but I would suggest keeping the old format of Kyle even though you can't get him back. so that means that you should get another person of similar personality (I guess that you have at least one as Kyle was a central employee.), and it would solve a problem I and others probably feel about the show namely. it feels more like a PSA message from the government instead of the entertaining and more personal show you previously had.

Make sure to get aloe vera gel as pure as poss like 99% or more, i recently purchased a tub of aloe vera gel from ebay, it was thick and even after 20 mins of mixing it would not break down and i had to scieve it off and try to rescue my isopropyl, finally done it with coffee filters. The ebay seller does not want to change their item description so many people will be paying for these tubs of gel in hope of making a spray and throwing their money down the drain. A well known high st health shop name beginning with H sells tubes of the proper stuff and a resonable price too. My wasted gel cost me £22.

This is entirely off topic from this episode, and a similar topic has already been discussed. But on the topic of phasers from star trek could it be possibly that a weapon could exist that holds you in stasis maybe using plasma? And then proceeds to heat up small portions of your body as you are held in stasis only vaporizing small sections of the body at a time? It would be utter for the victims but I do believe the star wars universe already has a similar weapon called the plasma disruptor rilfe.

[@asinglelettuce598]

Thanks for caring lol

[@valeriacastillo8620]

what kind of aloe vera gel can I buy???

[@pablobribiesca2596]

70% alcohol concentration is more effective at denaturing proteins. Higher concentrations does not necessarily mean more effective. It does make sense to start at 90% alcohol concentration and then adding aloe vera to reduce the alcohol concentration to around 70%.

[@aliciamoodley4508]

Using a product that is hospital grade and doesn't use nasty smelling isopropyl alcohol but ethanol is the best. Check out snosan.com it is American made and well the best, hands down! Scent-free when dry and hypoallergenic is also a nice addition to the product, works and looks after your skin.

Higher alcohol concentrations are *not* necessarily more effective. Plenty of studies can be found that show 70% to be more effective. If you're diluting >90%, make sure it's with something water based. Lastly, make sure you can seal the container airtight. Otherwise the alcohol will evaporate.
