> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by stockpuppet \* > \*\*note to self > > Never eat orange snow \*\* “Don’t eat the yellow snow”, perhaps?

This is from one of my Bathroom Readers; I can’t remember which one: > [@](#): > > **LUMINOUS GREEN SNOW: In April 1955, glowing green snow was encountered near Mount Shasta, California. Mr. and Mrs. Milton Meyer reported that their hands itched after touching it and that “a blistered, itching rash” formed on their hands, arms, and faces. The Atomic Energy Commission denied any connection between the snow and recent A-bomb tests in nearby Nevada.** _ **Note to self:** _ Do not swear at little old ladies! ---
