There is some stuff written on this but I can't recall where I read it.  Let
me check a few sources and see what I can find on it.  I know attitude has
some bearing on why some people seem to be able to fight the odds, but I
don't remember what factors were included in this.

Hi Sue

You know most people feel that weather has something to do with crime, suicide, etc. 
rates on the
thinking level, but seem to forget this when they do things.  I use the LA riots as a 
good example of
this.  I have them figure out how time of day, the day of the week, the time of year, 
and the weather all
were a factor in explaining the riots.  It is not only negative things that seem to be 
affected by the
weather, etc.  Look at the stats on infant births.  And, even the day of week has an 
influence.  What is
amazing to me though is that way back when--can't remember the exact historical 
period--they wrote about
the time of days babies were more likely to be born.  They also wrote about the 
effects of alcohol before
we discovered (?) FAS/FAE.  Have been reading a little about adult FAS/FAE and I shake 
my head sometimes
at the researchers.  One of their profound findings, according to the way they write, 
is that FAS/FAE has
long-term effects and will affect the person as an adolescent/adult.  *Duh*

But at least now they are identifying the areas of the brain that are affected, even 
for those who do not
show mental retardation (wish there was a better word).  They are recognizing that 
many are not being
assisted in school because they do not qualify for special education based on present 
criteria.  Another
positive outcome is that the person is not being misdiagnosed and treated chemically 
for a psychological
disorder such as depression.  I read a letter written by an adult person who finally 
was diagnosed
correctly and she tells how she was misdiagnosed for years.  I can send you the file 
privately if you are
interested.

 I'm not sure about the physical cause of the gravitational force, 
but I
 think you've hit pretty close to it.  The combined effects of the 
charged
 particles or ions within the molecules of each body acting on the 
other
 body.  I know the force of the pull is determined by the inverse

I would expect there to be a much more reasonable explanation of a slight

there are plenty of things that escape from the body when death occurs

But I wonder how anyone could study this since the weight loss would have

Hi Doc

Thanks for clarifying.  Somehow that sounds poetic in a way, much better than
disease or even disorder.  One of my teachers once said that the early writers
in the social sciences wrote more colorfully and poetically and that is why she
thought they were more enjoyable to read.  She felt they used metaphors and
painted pictures for the reader.  Of course she studied in England and her
dissertation tied Freud and Parson together, so that may account for some of her
thoughts on this.

HI Jackie,

I'm sure Steve will elaborate on this, but the major cause of tides is
the gravitational pull of the moon as it orbits around the earth.

As for minerals, Calcium is essential for healthy bones and Iron is
essential for the hemoglobin that carries oxygen through the blood and
transfers it to our organs.  Potassium, Selenium and many others also
play important roles in our health.  And since we don't make minerals we
have to get them via diet or supplements.

  Currently on a medical topic list we are discussing the use of magnets

  the flow of blood to an area, that is it aids circulation.  Now, there
  are different precursor states: might be trauma, might be inherent, even
