Ivan, I for one have appreciated your clear and concise input to this list over the while that I have subscribed and I have no hesitation in accepting all that you say without question...However, if you don't mind me asking-(as a very non-techie!), would you suggest that a small daily prophylactic dose of Cs be taken, particularly during the Flu season which has just started here in Aus? Due to a very severe dose of flu that I had last year, which I blame on a flu injection, I decided that I wouldn't have one this year! Your input would be appreciated here in light of your comments regarding point 5 below.
