Re: Another OT

Oddly enough, Bonnie, that's a variation on what I do every day:-) 
Use 1 tsp. salt + 1 tsp. baking soda to a cup of warm water - doctor
had me do this about 30 years ago when I had a sinus infection. 
Since I started doing this (do it first thing in the morning when I
wake up - at sink; not shower); have not had an infection; used to
have them all the time.  Takes a bit of getting used to, but once you
do acclimatize yourself to it; it works a treat.
