1. Lynn Alan Eubank, citation and other info on the 'speech gene' research

Since several very helpful folks have written me with the relevant
citation (and web) info on the 'speech gene' research (and since
several folks have also requested the info), I figure it'd be easiest just
to post back to the list.

Here's the citation for hard copy:

	Title: Localisation of a gene implicated in a severe speech and
		language disorder.

	Authors: Simon E.Fisher, Faraneh Vargha-Khadem, Kate E.Watkins, 
		Anthony P. Monaco & Marcus E. Pembrey

	Nature Genetics, Volume 18, no. 2 pp. 168-170. (Feb. 1998)


You can see an abstract of the work at the following address:

A shorter blurb about the research is available at this address:

Thank you again to the folks who wrote!
later,
Lynn
