Knowing the origin of that quotes puts it in better perspective.

@edgarblythe,
I recently read in an old - from a used book sale - Reader's Digest "Help you with any old thing" type book that various people recommended spraying WD40 on arthritic joints and rubbing it in.
I was stunned that Readers Digest would even print such a thing.
@JTT,
They probably believed the folk tale that the ingredients are mainly fish oil, making it harmless.
If guns don't kill people...people kill people...why send guns to war? Why not just send the people?

@edgarblythe,
What is the ingredient base of WD40, Ed, do you know?
@timur,
Thanks, Timur. Off the top of my head, I ain't no chemist or medical expert, I don't think that it's what you wanna spray on a body to ease arthritis pain.
@JTT,
But suppose it does ease the pain for some sufferers.
@spendius,
Go fer it, Spendi. Use it as a gargle, if you so desire.

Referring to Senator Ted Cruz....wish I'd thought of this

Where do I come in JT? I've only ever used WD 40 on stuck nuts.

I recommend that in the future you see a urologist or a specialist in infertility.
