| Subject: | SARS again |  |
| Date: | May 23, 2003 |
| From: | Peter Ong | |
First off, the Hobbyfan Humvees I ordered were probably made and packaged years ago, long before SARS. Secondly, the Tamiya Humvee is from Japan and no human probably touched that for long before the box was sealed and shipped out of Japan.
However, the kits are coming from Taiwan in 10-14 days. They were shipped today.
What should a paranoid like me do once the box arrives? Open the box and let it air in the sun or spray the entire inside of the box with bleach or rub everything down with alcohol? The parts are resin and plastic. (I do wash my parts in 409 and Westley's tire cleaner though to remove mold grease).
This post is no silly joke. Let's just say I had a history of "bad luck that only happened to me" for a long while. Any comments appreciated (besides giving the kits away to a non-paranoid :-))!
Thanks!
