Huh, looks like I'm somewhat sensitive to pollen. Weird cold-like symptoms that didn't feel quite like a cold... apparently really high pollen today and the symptoms lists matches.

So I have learned that some (very few, about a 100 tree species) are dioecious and allergenic. It's only male plants that are allergenic because they spew the pollen, while female trees are ok.
Now I need to learn how to tell Male trees apart from female trees.

Every morning in Bangalore begins that way for me :D (though it usually fades in 30 mins or so)

You can acquire new allergies as you grow older.
Remember how immune system works --- constantly generating novelty, if it doesn't match self it's released into the bloodstream, and if it then matches some other, replicated and remembered...
