our schools had a fun way to deal with cootie infestations.

Not the old school remedy... some naphtha mixed into the shampoo (or shaved bar soap and water goo)...

100% effective, but just a tad irritating to the scalp (and other portions of your anatomy...) And don't ask about the tapeworm remedy. ;-)

Had to be better than the iodine tablets they made us Downwinders take during the A-Bomb testing in NV... We weren't even CLOSE!!!

Ah, but you see, you have the wrong idea.

Our "cootie infestations" were purely imaginary. Hence we needed special "cootie catchers" to deal with them.
