Andreas tells us it's balmy in Palo Alto. Where I live, some 3 hours south, it's been balmy to the point of tropical, with every blasted plant species suddenly in bloom. Lovely though it feels to some, I've been a sniveling, sneezing, itching mass of misery for a week now. Anyone have any home remedies for baaaad allergies to offer? Benedryl barely touches this. Gettin' desperate, folks.
