Hi peeps,
 
seeing that there are a lot of people on here from the US of 'A' I thought I would ask about hot sauce.
 
I love to s p i c e (blocked word? ) things up with a bit of tabasco sauce...  http://www.tabasco.com/
 
Is there a definitive hot sauce that you guys mean when you talk about hot sauce?
 
Can you recommend some sauces for me?

The first thing that comes to my mind is Dave's Insanity Sauce.  It was one of the first that pushed the limits of the Scoville scale for heat.  Others may have surpassed it.  It was so strong that I would only use a drop at a time, but I'm not that much of a hot head.  You would need to wash your hands well after using it so you don't get it in your eyes or other sensitive areas.

Uh Oh. Jan needs a hand monitor.

Don't forget--what goes in must come out.  It usually burns at both ends.  

I'm fond of Frank's Red Hot. It's not really terribly hot, but that's OK, I like to taste the chilis.
 
Tabasco, meh. It tastes like cayenne-flavored vinegar.

Agree with Bit. And I love hot!

I'll add a second to what Bit said.
I absolutely love the flavor of Frank's Sauce.
Most sauces of this "type' are just s pi c e y vinegar.
Depending on the type of store that you may go to, I have found Frank's with different levels of heat.
It is good stuff.
 

Although I seem to be able to handle hot, I tend to avoid it for two reasons: #1, I usually like to taste what I'm eating and #2. 

Another "vote" for Dave's Insanity Sauce, and they now make even hotter versions.  With Dave's used wisely, you actually still can taste the food.  But, it can also give you an all out "burn".

I just squeeze a tube of pure Capsacin in my mouth.  10 million Scoville units!  Yum!!!
