You have to understand that I get this visceral reaction to anyone using 
WD40 on anything.... ;^)

I'd probably amend your lube procedure to cover more links.  If you are 
just lubing 6-8 links, you are probably missing the majority of your 
drivetrain.  If you have enough humidity to get corrosion on  your chain 
(not the case in CA, except in winter or if you live in SF), you want a 
reasonably tenacious formula and it wouldn't hurt to leave a bit on the 
outside.  You might experiment with something other than FL Wet.  You might 
also experiment with lubing the night before you ride, then letting it get 
tacky overnight, then wiping lightly the next day - or just wiping up the 
drips.  As long as you are lubing the pivots and plates rather than the 
rollers, you shouldn't cause too much of an issue.  If you are getting 
surface rust on the rollers, that will probably disappear before you are up 
the street.  

Hope that helps!
