Sandi, I thought of you today when my leg started itching a while ago! Not from PI...hadn't been near any lately. But I do grow Stinging Nettle in the yard, and must have gotten careless while planting seeds today. Not that it's such a big deal...no rash, just itching for a while. I grow it well out of the way of where I usually go in the yard and mark it clearly. The plant makes such a great herbal for tea and a friend of mine got me started growing it. It really does seem to do me some good when I'm feeling a bit poorly and tastes great in tea.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
