Thanks, Chemar.

I have a lot of problems with some of the info. on that site though. A lot has happened in the past 10 years and if I read about _the_ GTS Gene one more time I think I'll scream lol.

Some of the Editor's theories on that site don't make sense to me. I do so dislike the use of the word "normal". What the heck is "normal" anyway. A normal is a vector that is perpendicular to a surface!

hiya Lara

yeah I agree that "normal" is a term that narks me too!
and I think the article isnt all that up to date, but simple enough tho to look at the basics of the chemistry involved, especially the steroidal stuff, as it answered some of my ponderings re stress and increased tics, along with the male female ratio stuff
