<VV> napkin sucked into shroud\that'll larn ya!

[RoboMan91324 at aol.com]

Bruce,

Water may not be a great idea.  It is likely to turn the paper into goo 
which will stick where it is and harden eventually.  It will be a very 
effective insulator creating a hot spot.  I believe the best course of action would 
be to let it dry out, turn brittle and eventually turn to dust.  The dried 
out lump of goo may or may not turn to dust.

Just my opinion.
