Happened to me at Cross Plains. Stuck a flake in the pad of my thumb demonstrating - apparently how not to do it ::). That was a bleeder, had to resort to using the super sealer.. No gorry pictures..

JB, If you're talkin bout me, I'm pretty well healed up.  Not much to show now.  It was a gyser though.  dp

edit..You can actually see it in the first of my pics in Pics From the Twin Oaks Pit on this same page.
