[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 55247, member: 57"]Not saying I recommend it but . . . isn't there an "old" test for differentiating between horn and other substances. I believe it involves a hot straight pin or the sharp end of a safety pin and determining if the tiny area pierced with the hot point of a pin produces a "burned hair" smell. Wait to see if others have something to say about the "hot pin" test.;)[/QUOTE]
