T&T: Best sunscreen

[Georgs Kolesnikovs]

It never ceases to amaze the many useful things one learns on 
Trawlers & Trawlering List!

Four out of five sunscreens and sunblocks on the market are harmful 
or inadequate. Wow!

Every single sunscreen and sunblock, even name brands such as 
Neutrogena, that we had on hand now is in the garbage.

Thanks, Jeff!
