I don’t buy the male tree thing; ornamentals are not that large a part of the biomass. This is a bad (or is that good?) year for pollen, but it has more to do with weather and, perhaps, an increased susceptibility to allergies in the population in general. National Geographic had an article on the subject (airplane reading.) Basically it comes down to getting too clean; sometimes you need to role in the dirt to inoculate yourself.
