None of us need our inboxes clogged with this argument. You've both spoken your points of view...let's leave it at that shall we? ----- Original Message ----- From: Esther Simmons To: ohallen@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, October 30, 2006 6:05 PM Subject: Re: [OHALLEN] Shaving Cream on Tombstones-my last response ----- Original Message ---- From: "TEXTIQUE@aol.com" <TEXTIQUE@aol.com> >>>As I said before "When in doubt, don't" As I said, I have worked with a stone conservator's company and they know shaving cream to be harmful because of scientific studies. Like the last scientific study you posted? The one that suggested a tombstone would completely disappear if covered in shaving cream for 8 hours? Is this the kind of "scientific study" to which you refer? >>>Cite your sources for us. That's curious, what's good for the gander is apparently too good for the goose. I didn't see you cite any of your sources, except the ridiculous one that suggested that a tombstone would dissolve in 8 hours if covered in shaving cream. You mention "scientific studies" (see above) but you don't include any citation. Why is that? If you are going to make pretense that these scientific investigations exist, then please cite them. Only this time, please don't bother citing those that are clearly impossible.
