Downey solution is good enough for me -- those damned dryer sheets

To repel mosquitos, I prefer cigars. Since they do double duty and
repel liberals as well. (Actually, they repel liberals much better
than they repel mosquitos, since the liberals shy away from the
rumor and the mosquitos insist on checking out the actual aroma
before they avoid the site, and that's experience, not reading).

Probably nothing useful. They serve the purpose when inserted in a
dryer the Downey does in the washer, chemically treating fabric so as
to reduce static electricity. In a vehical, there would be little
effect.
They do the same thing as diluted Downey from a spray bottle. When I'm
carrying static-sensitive things, I take a couple sheets out and rub down
the carpet, seats, and plastic panels with them. Actually works fairly
well (and I read somewhere that they repel mosquitos too). What I do now is keep a wrist-strap and a
box of Bounce dryer sheets (don't laugh) in my jockey box.
Sorry, but what do the Bounce sheets do?
