Or take a bucket of bleach and just hurl it up at the fan while its running on it's fastest speed.
What?
Never send a minion to do a god's work.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
You may have to use a solvent, like TSP or one of the spray cleaners with orange oil. Soap and water will do it, but you'd need to actually remove the blades from the fan and wash them in the sink--messy. And it still leaves you with the fan body. I don't know if I'd want to use a spray cleaner on the fan housing--it has vent holes and I don't know what the cleaner would do to the motor. I'd use Goo Gone on a paper towel on a metal surface I couldn't submerge.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I am far too lazy to remove fan blades. I'll try the Goo Gone.
I swear, the stuff is like ectoplasm mated with a dead Persian.

Also the Palmolive Oxy Plus is really good at cutting through greasy stuff. It's what I like to use. Just a drop on a sponge or so should clean them up really well.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Erin has a new tag.
As I was walking home from the Union today, I heard the words "Free hot chocolate!"
I turned, and there were several girls all bundled up for the cold. There was a paper sign proclaiming "Free hot chocolate!"
One girl asked, "Do you want free hot chocolate?"
"Yes," I said. "What do I do?"
"You don't do anything," she said.
The wind blew one of the paper signs off, a sign which did indeed say, "You don't have to do anything!"
As I was given my hot chocolate, I saw another paper sign with the name of the group, since this had to be something for an organization.
"What's ORAK?" I asked.
"DORAK," she said. "It stands for Do Random Acts of Kindness."
"Wow, that's awesome! I approve," I said. "How do I join?"

Hey. New board.
It sounds like Neil Gaiman's daughter would get along quite well with my sister.
Why don't I read his blog again?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Nova, speaking of Gaiman, have you had a chance to read "American Gods" or "Good Omens" yet?
Gris - Jan 18, 2005 2:37:37 pm PST #5472 of 10002
Hey. New board.
I have read both, and thoroughly enjoyed each. Good Omens was my first exposure to him, actually, and I adored it. Read it about four times now. After reading a couple of Discworld novels I've decided that my love for the novel must all be Neil, cuz Pratchett gets under my skin in a most incredible way.

Man, Sandman is even better on the second reading.
And the third, and the fourth, and the so many times you've actually lost count ...

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Wee Free Men is a lot closer in tone to the Good Omens work than to the other Discworld stuff, so you may wish to give it a shot.
