Susan, glad to hear about your going to rejoin. I second David's comments, but would like to add a little note of caution should you decide to clean pieces yourself. You have to use 40 or 100 volume hydrogen peroxide, available ONLY at beauty supply places. The stuff you find in the pharmacy/supermarket is simply not strong enough to do any good. If you do use the higher concentration peroxide, BE VERY CAREFUL...it is extremely caustic and can really burn the skin. Use industrial strength rubber gloves (for liquid chemical use) and be sure pieces are washed thorough once they are out of the peroxide. And when you heat them in your oven, be careful of the fumes, especially when you first open the oven door. Good Luck and enjoy! Michael
