I have to work with students, and they are trying their very best to avoid a flu outbreak.

Eactly to the point. I'm feeling fine. This was a very mild flu I got on Halloween, with barely any symptoms, but it's lingering. I was on antibiotics this week from having a tooth pulled, and the dentist said the tooth might affect my immune system, and low and behold I'm coughing again, so I'm obviously still carrying it. While I may have a healthy enough immune system, and it was a very mild flu, it might not be so easy on those I give it to, or those you pass it on to. Our meets are very cramped quarters, and we share and pass around a lot of gear. I don't know what I have, but this year's flu statistics are scary, and I like you guys too much.
I'm going to add these posts to the web page FAQ for the next meet.
Have a great time.
