Showers are not like swimming. Perhaps not the full-body style, maybe
just a handheld sprayer. And it might include an abrasive component in
the manner of sandblasting rather than a simple detergent, though that's
probably a bit far-fetched.<br><br>
John Ford's Klingons luxuriated in something akin to a sauna. Hot and
steamy works to get clean as well as
dirty.</font><font face=3D"Times New Roman, Times" color=3D"#888888"><br><br=
