Hmmmm. The Vagus nerve connection is INTERESTING. I do know that
there are implantable Vagus Nerve stimulators which are used for some neurologic conditions. The company that makes the implantable stimulator was getting ready to apply to the FDA for medical device usage for depression since it has a nice side effect as per mood. However, during that time a guy in Frederick County, Maryland (where I used to live) was stimulating his Vagus while driving and caused a major car accident killing 5, and that skuttled all plans for the depression indication with the FDA. I have met one paddler who drowned, and was successfully recussitated after 8 minutes. He described drowning as "euphoric" and said he "would do it everyday" except the recovery in the hospital was painful and quite unpleasant. Wonder if that could be the Vagus Nerve effect? Hey, this thead is fun. Just like the rbp heyday! Mothra |

RBP was hot for a while, quite frequently earning a column in some of the paddling rags And every once in a while, some direct quotes from this group would show up in a book. And even though that was a long time ago, I gotta tell you, there are many names counted on the list of friends met here that I would love to connect with in real life.

Remember the magazine RIVER a few years back? I had two word for word boat
