Hi Bill, I'm a Robitussin CF guy myself. It's always made me feel "better" too (just don't overdose on the psuedafed - it's makes you INCREDIBLY anxious, did that once/won't do it again). :)
WRT Airborne and similar products, I'm just reporting my experience with it, and that of my computer operator. As always, your mileage may vary. :) Michael Coffin, President MC Consulting Company, Inc.

Heard it on the radio, so it must be true ... sounds like Dudley Dooright from Rocky and Bullwinkle ("I read it in the paper so it must be true"). I heard that drinking milk helps you loose weight, too ... on the radio ... Oh hey, what about cold-water fusion? ... heard about that on the radio ...hmm ... Between special interest groups, wanna-be scientists and downright crooks pushing their own agendas, and journalists who rush to publish anything that sounds interesting, with little regard for whether it's actually true or not, I've acquired a healthy skepticism about such issues. Bah humbug!
