You're right, but that doesn't stop people from asking folks other than 
their physician.  And the "Don't do it unless you already know the 
results!" is a good tip for *anything* you do with a child while 
travelling.

And there was some article brought to my attention not too long ago 
regarding a flight attendant that suggested to a woman that she give her 
child Benadryl.  Had lots of people fuming over that one.  Lecturing the 
flight attendant on that sort of thing might get you removed from the 
plane....

Television?  No.  I don't think I've seen anything that wasn't either 
Weather Channel (or local weather loop), PBS or Noggin for about the past 
3 weeks.  No, wait, there was that Mythbusters episode....

who hasn't ever given Benadryl for a trip, but too many times for ant 
bites and wasp stings (and that one scorpion sting, ow)
