quick poll about sneezing and sunlight.

Bright sunlight tends to make me sneeze. This is called the photic sneeze reflex, and it's relatively common.

How about you?

Ah. There are certainly some people for whom something like a camera flash forces a sneeze, and that was the severity that I thought the quiz was geared towards.

To reiterate, bright light doesn't *make* me sneeze, but it can /assist/ a sneeze. I'd say it's good for the last 25% of the way there.

I would say that at some point, anything can make you sneeze, right....

Plus, yes, plucking my eyebrows seems to make me sneeze too.....
