Throughout the year, 24-7-365—from the pollen-laden spring season through the leaf mold-rich autumn and into the frosty winter—we political scientists, being human (no wise remarks, please), frequently sneeze. Like most other humans, however, the great majority of us just sneeze, letting it all hang out, so to speak.
In light of John’s earlier post and all the comments it sparked about what political science has to contribute to the world, I, as a political scientist, consider it my duty to present for your edification and, I hope, for your behavior modification, this vital, and potentially life-saving, information for sneezers and sneezees alike concerning the appropriate modality for nasal suspiration. It’s the least I can do.

Wow. I had to watch that video in August at an orientation. Creepy.
I just watched the “sneezing modality” video and.., ah, ah, ept… AAHHHH-SHOOOO! Pardon me. Now, do I really want to risk hacking up a goober onto my shirt-sleeve? I think not. Unless, of course, I’m wearing a phlem-colored shirt. Such evidence, however, might help me spot a dutiful GWU poli-sci prof with respiratory issues the next time I’m in D.C. BTW – What’s that on Kathine Harris’ sleeve, a hanging chad?
