  No, no, it's IR *AND* UV. Any welder knows you can cook meat
(including self) next to cherry-red or hotter iron or steel. The
subject would be flash-broiled long before flame-on.
  For lasting agony, water or peanut oil would be much better.

  Because the subject would never notice. If the liquid temp comes up
slowly, it's just "hot" until the nerve endings die.

  More Pentiums than AMD K-6s....
