Organizing my supplies today, I ran across some old bags (no offense intended). A while ago, I had my one and only leak in public. I did escape unscathed, but when I got home, I immediately put into storage that type of bag. I have a difficult time throwing things away - always save for "in case of emergency." Anyway, while organizing, I see I had written myself messages on this particular box of "guilty as charged" bags. I have attached a pic below to further explain and for your viewing pleasure. I am posting this because, as a newbie, I was unaware of these details and other than this website, there aren't many "professionals" to advise us of the bazillion of options there are. It is often a hit and miss thing - many times leading to embarrassments and mega rashes! If at least one person finds this info useful, my work here is done and I will go do my laundry now. jb
