I don't know Bert, you certainly are the prettiest of us all...maybe from all that tap water? Now you know why I distill my own water. All in all an interesting study that would benefit from more controlled laboratory work. Although, since the main active steroid in birth control is progesterone ( targets a totally different receptor) I wonder why they chose to look at estrogens instead. It might have to do with the body's ability to metabolize different steroids at different rates....Anyway, I'm always up for talking about REAL steroids, not fake ones like HGH.
Also, I second Nick's comment about the Adams series, I only caught 2 episodes in various hotels on my recent travels but what I saw was very good. Although they made Jefferson out to be a total ass in the ones I saw. But Ben Franklin was awesome. I didn't get to see Hamilton though. It comes out on DVD in June I think and I'm definitely going to check the whole thing out.
