Dwight, on a serious note you need to use good sunscreen. I can tell you from first hand personal experience what it's like going into surgery to have a class 3 melanoma removed and not knowing until you wake up if they were successful or you were shat out of luck. In my case I was lucky it hadn't spread to my nymph nodes.



Thanks for the advice here, Don. Actually however, before I hit the tennis courts two to three times a week, I always use an SPF50 on my face and arms, in hopes that I won't have to go through the same terrible expreience you had.

(...though I admit I have been puttin' off goin' to see a dermatologist about a couple of areas on my face which have been of some concern to me lately...hopefully your advice here will spur me to act upon this...thanks again)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
