Probably the eyes more than the brain, as the brain instantly
rebelled against the idea. This is what I read, I think:

  We use squeeze bottles of warm salt water
  go to the lungs fast.

 RH> I used to resist any sort of help other than otc meds but a few rounds
 RH> of bronchitis changed my mind on that.

I've been told I have very strong lungs and that I have
very weak lungs. Probably aspects of both. When they tried
to take my airflow, I broke the meter. Yet I would get out
of breath quickly (fluid and damage therefrom, no doubt).

  For years I never got a flu
 RH> shot, then only under great protest. I've not had the flu but get the
 RH> shot every year now (and the pnuemonia one every 5 years), as a
 RH> precaution.

Under my prescription plan, shots are free (because I am a
heart patient), but I still don't get them. I've had 2 flu
shots that I can recall, and got flu one of those years.
Got one pneumonia shot once. But I figure for me the dangers
are elsewhere, so why increase someone else's insurance
payments for something that arguably does me no good.

You know me - when cooking for myself I increase the spicing
quite a bit

 RH> Looking forward to reading your write up of the trip to the outermost

Soon, I promise ...
