Hi Richard,

> But I'd go for a "booster" myself.

In St. Louis when I was growing up they were very careful to see that school age children were vaccinated for Smallpox. My vaccinations never "took". No scab, no scar - no nothing. So every year they would vaccinate me again. As I got older I argued - to no avail. Finally when I was in high school they gave up. :-)

Do I need a booster? :-)

PS - Another oddity. I don't know that I have ever had the "common cold". Ever since being diagnosed with alergies in my early teens, I have used antihistamines. As I understand it, antihistamies would not relieve the symptoms if I had a cold. Since my symtoms have always responded to the antihistamines - I can't recall ever having a cold.
