I had a piece on allergies on my wish list -- March is peak pollen season here in Southern California. After snooping around, I decided I couldn't do any better than the piece I built a decade ago at the Virginian-Pilot. I redrew everything from scratch and researched all the material in the lower two sections for our local readers, but I managed to even find the same lead art I used last time. This worked too well -- I've had allergy problems ever since this ran. March 19, 2014
