That product? Anything you touch may explode.

FYI Everyone: Blackrock residue (like the stuff all over Norrar's hands, and under his nails) is highly explosive. Be careful not to expose it to direct sunlight.

I like rainy days I can actually drive on them it's the sunny days that suck because my eyes can't seem to take sun while driving because the heat build up and air condition doesn't help it's odd but true.

Oh and I didn't expect a repeat buyer and you saved me having to return the money muhahaha.

Let me start by saying that I'm a trained optician, so I'm not just pulling info out of my butt here.

Columbia (the people who do the fleece jackets and hiking boots) makes sunglasses with a special lens called Carbonium (That might not be the correct spelling), that blocks UV and infrared radiation. IR rays are what cause the tissues in your eyes to heat up. I used to have a pair myself and they were awesome for when I wore contact lenses. Because I have dry eyes to start with, and contacts made it 10 times worse when I was out in the sun because they would cause my eyes to heat up and itch and burn. The carbonium lenses helped a lot. I've since given up on contacts altogether, so I swapped the lenses out for prescrption lenses. But if you can get yourself a pair it might help out a lot. Only trouble is that they don't come in prescription to my knowledge.

[Edit]
Made a quick phone call to my Columbia rep, Carbonium lenses are non-prescrption only, and L'Amy (the company that distributes Columbia frames) has discontinued the production of them. You can however find them any place that deals with closeout items. A quick google search turned up some results if you're interested.

"So, tell me again buddy, what was the last thing you remembered" Said the Healer in Trinsic.

Rob, rubbing his head replied "Well, there was this fellow that was selling some sort of contraption that he told me would spew chocolate. A fountain he called it. As I walked around the corner I heard a loud BANG. And then I woke up here."

The Healer, baffled, continued to his mending of Robs wounds.

Or indirect sunlight.

Or complete and utter darkness, for that matter... best to just stay far away from Blackrock anything ;)

It makes me close my left eye and I drive with only my right eye my glasses are transition lenses also although I have fairly decent vision without them but I took the test with them so I have to wear them I'm also near sighted.

But, the ac doesn't help because the air itself gets in my eyes and makes me need to tear up just like when I go to my optician and get the air blown into my eyes haha.
