Darn. The back button doesn't work so well on IE, and I lose all my intelligent composition!
Anyway, I wanted to say that this discussion of opposition among various neurotransmitter is interesting as a process because it addressed so many diverse functions of the brain.
Scott is right that it is impossible to explain the workings of the brain in one post.
The reason I have become infatuated with this site is that people are working to bring out into the open arcane knowledge that is important to individual health.
Looking backwards at the Decade of the Brain, I realize there is now a monumental task for journalists and information specialists who want to make available to the lay public and to clinicians the research product of the landmark decade.
The internet and growth of interactive multimedia formats makes this goal much more accessible.
I propose foundation intersted in improving the public health would do well to spend their money on efforts to present basic and advanced medical and physiological learning material in interactive public forums such as the internet.
