apparently had a noticeable effect, so it seems that they respond to
selection pressures fairly quickly, as expected.>>>>
Allen: This is tantalizing. I am writing something on the subject and
touching on this point. I've talked to several people that worked AHB in 4
countries with out gloves/veils.
If the source comes to mind, drop us a line, won't you?
