My ears are burning. No wait! That's my face! AAAAAaaaaaa!!

As some readers know, I've been in contact with SL only minimally in the last couple of weeks, during which time a couple of people reported a little bit of a problem with my new Starburst colour-changing goggles. That problem, apparently, is that wearing them causes smoke to billow from your avatar's face. As strange as that issue might be, what's even stranger to me is that only two people mentioned it.

It turns out that I prepared two colour-changing scripts: one for the helmet and goggles, and the other for the smoke cannister. Guess which one I put into the goggles by mistake.

The faulty goggles aren't for sale for now. I plan to locate owners of the Starburst goggles and replace them with ones that don't catch fire. Until that happens, you can try removing the smoke script from the goggles. They won't change colour after that, but they'll be a lot safer. Sorry for the inconvenience and the singed noses.
