By using the term "I'll bite" I was attempting to infer that I understood you didn't believe it yourself, but were perhaps hoping to provoke a reaction from me :) So it would appear that my English skills aren't as refined as yours ;P No, your English was fine…

Less grumpy, less hot'n'bothered, certainly, but the idea that something cold on your throat leads a cold is bunch of bollards. However, coughing without covering your mouth, spitting on the street etc. DOES release germs in the air, and can help spread diseases... why I might think of that living in Kazakhstan, I'm sure I don't know ;> I’m guessing you didn’t check the whole site, although he discounts the oxygen issue, the other problems remain scary. http://www.fandeath.net/menu/fanskill.htm
