the Hippocampus: Neuronal Plasticity and Memory Stress. Schumacher M 1997 Oct;2(1):65-78. There is accumulating evidence that some neurosteroids,

in the hippocampus.

Mr. President - George W. Bush This past September, as a guest of President Bush's W100k bike ride, I have another
level of respect for our 43rd president. As a guest, participant and observer I found this program to be overwhelming
with the kindness and generosity that was shown to our Warrior Heroes and their guests by both President and Mrs. Laura Bush!
We were invited to their home for a sit down dinner which was followed by Jay Leno and the choir from the Prairie Lane Church.
Such a Phenomenal Evening. Andrew and I had the pleasure of sitting at a small table with President Bush's friend since
age 6 - Michael. The stories were classified and the laughter abounding.
