( see http://www.guardian.co.uk/Archive/Article/0,4273,4201752,00.html ) or is it just a coincidence that their are two psychiatrists in North Wales called Dr Dave who happen to be very knowledgeable about antidepressant medications?

I'm very flattered but no, that's David Healy who's mentioned in the article. I actually live in South Wales. I don't think it's purely co-incidence - I think that Wales is the sort of place that attracts people who like to think independently and are generally a bit bloody-minded.

Thanks for the compliment - I'm nowhere near as high flying as David Healy.
