Wicked Housewives On Cape Cod Radio NT

Tom Ogren, author, speaker, songwriter, pollen-allergy researcher, creator of OPALS. Loves to read, sing, garden, fish and camp. Spends way too much time on the computer and not nearly enough time out fishing and camping. In spring of 2012 Tom Ogren was hired by Johnson & Johnson (and their Canadian allergy medical Reactine) to do a coast to coast allergy audit of the 11 largest cities, from Vancouver to Halifax. He drove some 12,000 miles in his old truck, in each city looking carefully at the landscapes in residential areas, in commercial areas, downtown, and at elementary schools. Ine ach city he also visited local nurseries to see exactly which plants were being sold, and how allergyfriendly (or not) they were. What he found surprised even him... His book tells it all. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1607744910?ie=UTF8&tag=randohouseinc7594-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1607744910
