Krrraaap circles!

I am absoposolutely sure that it was invented for women. Since when do men care whether their skin gets all leathery and splotchy?

Crap! It was sun tan oil gone wrong; sunscreen was one of those mistake inventions that worked out for Wargod and many others.

I'll say crap. Remember that white Zinc carp your mom used to rub all over your nose? I can still smell that stuff.

I'd say crap if for no other reason than it seems like something that would have been created a long time ago.

And I missed the answer to the Dukes of Hazards car--wasn't it named General Custer? <ducking>

I'm giggling over Biloxibelle's "white zinc carp". I guess things ARE different in the south!

that white zinc was desitin in our cases. we always had a baby in the house. once, i snuck a cigarette while babysitting 4 tiny girls and i thought i heard the parents coming home. i ran into the bathroom, missed the light switch and grabbed what i thought was toothpaste. that desitin stayed on my tongue for days!

Tabbyking, your story reminds me of when I was a kid and grabbed the tube of Youdora (sp)underarm deoderant and proceeded to brush my teeth. That too I can remember the awful taste off, yuck!

Crap...I'm going for a trifecta of stinking stuff - it's like rolling dice, still have the same chance of rolling each number no matter what was rolled the day before.

crap, i think it was invented by sir edmund hillary for his first everest trek, so that he wouldn't get sunburned being that close to the sun.

here's my take on the whole sunscreen bit. it seems to me that folks have been looking for a way to keep from getting sunburned long before we had troops stationed in the south pacific. in fact, i remember in gone with the wind miss scarlett having buttermilk or something put on her to keep her from freckling at the picnic.

so, based on this logic, if you can call it that, i say this was unadulterated crap.

i don't see a DATE in the question either. when were these men stationed in the pacific? yesterday? a hundred years ago?

Fact

I am related to the person who invented it, originally it was not designed as a sun screen but as camoflauge and they realized it also prevented sunburn

My vote is don't worry be happy! :-)

Today's (er, yesterdays) FOC answer is... FACT!!!!

Much as I love to think the Coppertone kid had something to do with it, I think it's a fact that sunscreen was invented in WWII.

fact, because it's sounds like a nice thing for our government to do for our soldiers I hope they gave our soldiers some sunglasses too!
