The site was a good one. Interesting reading..

I've always thought that the human brain is distributed throughout the nervous system, throughout the body, that its place of residence is not exclusively between the ears.

Some startling information...

In my latest thread "Reconciling God and Science" in the Spirituality forum I coincidentally touched on the indole molecule in the company of the peptides found in the gut. Indole is a product of putrefaction and also the molecular nucleus for certain hallucinogenic compounds: the Lysergines (LSD); Ibogaine; Dimethyltryptamine (DMT); Psilocybin etc., not to mention the purple dye Tyrian Purple. The peptides found in the gut are essentially the same as the neuropeptides found in the brain.
