I got bitten while handling.Go figure =P

for a full report (with lots of pics) see this post:

edit:

five days after being bit, my hand has swelled up again... i'm *pretty* sure i was envenomated

most amusing, the spot where i was bitten for only a couple seconds by the same individual as this report is about also swelled up....
*AND* the spot where a tiny 1" (2.5cm) 2i baby bit me ALSO itched and turned red... and that spot is a week older than the other two bites and never bothered me before!

i suspect with all the chewing the centipede drove venom into my interstitial spaces in addition to mainlining some
