And I tried that one and P-O-P to remember that oxytocin comes from the
Posterior pituitary.  Unfortunately, then I couldn't ever remember which was
which, and if the PP was Posterior pituitary or PP was prolactin pituitary.

Jan -- who can only remember useless stuff such as "every good boy does fine"
and "On old olympus towering top, a Finn and German Vaulted a Hedge."  Lovely
to know that, but I can never remember the names of the nerves to which the
initial letters belong.
