Thank you for the link to Dr. Mussen. Salon.com published a panel
discussion including Dr. Mussen. Interesting reading as the panelists
parse through the various theories and media reports.

As for the poster who wrote about feeling dirty about Bayer -- Bayer
AG is a longtime purveyor of death including developing and
experimenting the use of mustard gas and other chemicals on inmates in
Germany during WWI and WWII, so anytime you use any of their products
you are supporting a company that, unlike a number of other German
companies, has never apologized to anyone. (I learned this in grade
school during the 60's as we were encouraged not to use any Bayer
products.) For a basic history of Bayer's misdeeds, go to
