Heh, not to toot my own horn, but I'm not a neurochemist. I do read and observe a lot and try to work out my observations. The compliment is much appreciated, and thanks for bringing those two authors to my attention.

Cafeeine:You have stated concisely what Walter Lord and Jack Finney tried to explain in both fiction and nonfiction, in one book after another.You're either a genius or a neurochemist.
