That's the trouble with anecdotal evidence, I guess. First you call it
anecdotal and then you dismiss it for being anecdotal! I get much the same
feeling.

I'm interested to hear that someone actually tried it on deliberately. But

Devi's reply -see my separate posting - together with your reported
experience, has inspired me to pursue this a bit further. For that I'm
grateful.

Kind regards,
