After reading the question below about itching, I found myself starting to itch all over. Why do we itch when people near us itch? (Assuming they're not all in a flea-infested room that is!)

Ooh, sorry dave... Will it help to know that the itching only becomes totally unbearable at night?... uhh... I'll stop now.
