with all the hypothalmus and seratonin theories. Remember what Flash was saying about the gradual buildup of seratonin and that a cycle seems to be the release mechanism to get rid of the excess. This really could correlate with the diminishing amount of light exposure. Is the body storing an excess of seratonin to compensate for the lack of stuff it should be getting from sunlight? Does the onset of a cluster cycle somehow let the body get rid of that excess? I'd sure be interested in seeing your graphic analyses of daylight changes....wouldn't it be cool if we could figure out how to measure seratonin levels and compare the two?
Food for thought, anyways.
