	Clark's Chicken near Santa Clara University can
be deadly.  They have 6 different categories and the top one is called "Thermonuclear"!  I grew up with hot food and it was still too much for me.

	I have had better luck with Siam House on Market St. in Downtown San Jose.  I asked for extra spicy and I always got it.  It is very spicy without killing its flavor.

I went with a friend to the Thai House in SF (on Church I think, a couple blocks from Market).  We made the mistake of ordering the stuff HOT.  We were absolutely speechless through most of the meal (our voices were gone, it was difficult to talk), tears rolling down our cheeks, sniffling, blowing our noses.  It was great!!  S&M food! ;-)
