Chilies come in categories Bland, Mild, Medium, Hot, Firey, and Stupid
Hot. That sounds like it`s in the stupid-hot range.

Actually, did you know that capsaicin (the heat in chilies) can be used
to cure bacterial ulcers? Go figger.

Chile tolerance has to be maintained ... as you have learned. I remember
taking Michael Loo to our local Den Chilli Parlor - where he ate five
(yes 5) bowls of their Firebrand Chilli in one sitting. His name is now
forever enshrined on their "Wall of Flame".

Was that before the days that microwaves were common? If so that had to
take some planning and effort. Bv)=
