I am sure that there is some sort of somatic sensitivity or vulnerability that for some people exposures such as the toxics trigger reactions. There is a theory called "organ weakness" that discusses this; was a psychiatrist in the 40s. Since PD seems to run in families, eg., my mother had it, it would seem that there is some genetic base. That would suggest then that each of us would want to know, in the ideal world, what our sensitivities are to environmental conditions. I hope that research will be directed that way over the next 100 years. Bob N.
