Unfortunately a neti pot wouldn't work, too much cloggage, no flow from one nostril to the other. Good idea with the sodium, I'll mix up a batch with one of those Neilmed sinus rinse packs and add one drop of SSKI to the sprayer. I'll let you know how bad it is. No brain, no pain like they say.

Good idea about telling them to stick their ticker drugs, they'd probably make things worse. Stay strong! We gotta be around for Armageddon!
