I have a question. While picking fiddle heads yeterday I came in
   contact with a weed that upon contact gave me an intense stinging
   burning sensation. The weed was a low to the ground leafy type of
   growth that was not even noticable until you touched it. The
   stinging was temporary but very intense. On the the drive home the
   affected areas felt as though they were asleep (pins and needles).
   I would like to know the scientific name for this weed for further
   reaserch. Thanks, Ron Schmecker
