anybody know an effective cure for poison ivy?  i picked up a nasty
case of it a week ago, and it's *spreading*.  i'm covered from head
to toe with calamine -- keeps me from scratching, but doesn't seem
to be making it go away or preventing the spreading.

a warning to others who are sensitive:  stay out of the dunes at
sandy hook!

trying not to scratch --
