Rating: G
Character(s): Holmes, Watson
Summary: Holmes works on expanding his botanical knowledge.
Warnings: Blisters
Author's Notes: I once woke up in Watson's state when I was perhaps seven. My parents were more sympathetic than Holmes was. Also, the OED cites a 1908 abstract from the American Chemical Society as the first usage for urushiol, in which the term is described as being only a proposed name for that chemical. That probably should set this story around 1908, or perhaps slightly earlier.
