 WE> How did she prove this?
   I didn't dwell on her experiment since I think it is quite a stretch to
believe any such thing anyhow but it had something to do with using towels to
cover the areas like the arms and then coin tosses to place her hands over 
he
exposed areas.  Something like that.  I'm sure it's described in detail in 
he
article which the paper says was published in the journal of the AMA.  Why?
(grin) Do you want to repeat it to test it's reliability??
Sincerely, 
                                     Frank
