Well, it's been awhile but if I remember correctly, paraphrased <g>, some 
pollens are light and fluffy and travel by air well and others are heavy or 
sticky and need help.  As I remember, tomatoes are one of the "need help" 
types, melons are of the light and fluffy (easily carried by wind) types.  I 
used to have a list but it was probably on the two crashes ago computer.
