I'm quite new to chillis but I've been following this debate for a while, I
recently tried a logical approach and it seemed to work. If the 'heat' in
the chilli juice is oil soluble, not water soluble, I surmised that rubbing
oil (in my case olive oil) into my hands would draw out the heat, then I
washed the oil off my hands using washing up detergent.
It works for me! (I've only tried this on moderately hot chillis though,
not scotch bonnets or habenero's as i've not progressed to them, Yet!)
Here's to the Y2k growing season (if we all survive the 'bug')
