Elizabeth-You were confused by that? I guess it shows how people hear things differently. JahL mentioned that he got it through customs in the U.K. Being British, I assumed that he would not understand the phrase "in the ballpark, or ballpark figure", whatever I said. They generally don't play baseball in the U.K., and I assume that this is a baseball term, not a cricket or football term, so I was explaining, jocularly, the meaning of the term. I took JahL's remark
"Dosage by nationality? What if I'm a German? :-) as a very humorous statement. Remember, his emoticon was smiling. I wasn't suggesting dose by nationality. But then I thought that I would mention that there actually is some validity of dose by "race", published in the scientific literature.
