He speaks of transient factors, diet and colds not having much effect. What is his stance on pharmaceuticals? Something is not quite stirring the kool-aid to me. What about epigenesis, whereby environmental influences switch genes off and on? This, btw is my favorite thing, epigenesis. It might explain why institutionalizing kids and prisoners cause very predictive changes in many of their brains.
