Can't speak to the particular tv program, but the 
photic sneeze reaction has been extensively 
studied.  Naturually, none of my info is here
at work and I am uncertain I could find it at home
so this is per my memory.

16% of population has this reaction.
It can be inherited by either gender from either
parent.

In filling out a questionnaire for a researcher a
few years ago I discovered that my father has
it and passed it on to three out of four of his
kids.  

I have personally found the 84% of the 
population that doesn't have the reaction
disbelieves in its existence.  Since most of my 
family has it I always assumed everyone did.
I was quite surprised to find that there are 
people who *don't* sneeze when walking
out into the sun.  BTW, I can tell the difference
by the way my face feels between a photic
sneeze and other kinds of sneezes.

If I am not mistaken, the arrangement is this:

Hi everybody. I'm not sure if anyone's done a survey here investingating
the possible line between sexual orientation and handedness, but since I'm
currently doing such a survey over on alt.sex and talk.politics.misc, I
thought I might do a similar, SEPARATE survey here, too.

Please, if you respond, do so to me through e-mail, and please don't
bother everyone else by posting your data back to the net. I'll repeat
this post once a week, and at the end of a month I'll summarize the
results.

Here is the very simple survey: (confidentiality guaranteed)

---BEGIN SURVEY-----------------------------------------------------------

1. Biological Sex
2. Age
3. Handedness (Right-,Left-,Ambidextrous)
4. Kinsey Self-rating based on experience alone
   (0=heterosexual--->3=bisexual--->6=homosexual) (choose 0,1,2,3,4,5, or 6)
5. Kinsey Self-rating based on fantasy alone

The other night, in a post-orgasmic state, I sneezed.
The remaining seminal fluid, which would normally have dribbled out,
matting the hair on my legs, shot out in a clean spurt.
So, maybe this would be a useful technique for eliminating post-urinal drip:

True, many of the things to be seen in a typical SF Pride parade are
not representative of the mainstream LGB population.  The issue that I
have been addressing is that you have gone on to further state that because of
the minority, the majority, as a whole, is suffering to some great degree.

I do not think that the Sixty Minutes piece implied that the mainstream
community would like all LGB's to live their lives by the example of
the majority.  As I said before, diversity is good.  I think that the
problem you perceive is that the mainstream LGB community does not get
as much visible media as some minorities groups within the community.
This is a problem with the media perception, not the people in the
minority group.

I think that saddling a minority group within the LGB community with
the blame for the lack of media attention to the majority is unfair.

The Real Problem(TM) is that we are so boringly normal (well, at least
*I'm* boring) that the media ignores most of us (as well they should,
IMHO).  It really is too bad that news programs live and die by the
ratings.

Excellent, I get a chance to respond to something *and* retell a joke and

who's old enough to know it isn't just for breakfast anymore"?  Well, I
blew it big time.  If only I'd remembered about the mango juice incident,
I would have begun that post with the *much* cleverer variation

Nelson, who isn't just for breakfast anymore, sez:

>after the death of polyester fashion.

>nelson@reed.edu

Ah, good.  I'm glad you answered, Nelson, because I wanted to but lost
track of which thread the question was in.  The picture was done in
1980, though, rather than "mid-80s".  Mapplethorpe was a brilliant
photographer, wasn't he?  Not only were many of his male nudes some of
the most provocative I've ever seen, but some of his color stills of
subjects as common as flowers stop me in my tracks.  It makes you
realize what soulless scum a slimeball like Jesse Helms really is,
that he can't see art when it's inescapable to any normal heart.

Actually I like the closing thoughts after signing the post.  One of
the problems with Usenet is that one loses the nuances of verbal
communication (or even facial cues for that matter).  Sure, smilies
are an interesting way to rectify the situation, but it still comes
off as a bit of a kludge.  I find myself throwing in off the cuff
closing remarks based on my current mindset at the time I write 
something.  That or I include what I'm doing at the time that I
write it.  I may think/write something while moonlighting in the
Emergency Room that wouldn't have been said in another setting.
Or for that matter, I might be grumpy about having a manuscript
sent back from a journal which may be translated into something
grumpy being spewed forth to the world.  

Closing thoughts complete part of the communication process lacking
in this medium.  I thank Dr. Zwicky for introducing me to that
way of clarifying my postings.

And I still guarantee you that I am quite sincere and serious.  You have made

I asked an MD about this once and here's the medical opinion.  Apparently,
when the pupil contracts suddenly, a certain blood vessel gets squished
as a side effect.  The brain gets a little miffed about part of its blood
supply decreasing and rapidly determines that sneezing will alleviate the
pressure on this particular vessel.

Well, _you_ don't enjoy this when the tables are turned here, and you respond
with a "fuck you", as is your right.  I mean, your behavior is also
evidence of an affectation, isn't it?  I mean, why poker instead of
canasta or mah jongg?  So, bend over, Bobby, when the drag queens
(whoever you are out there) tell _you_ to go fuck yourself when they get

If I'm not speaking with them, I'm not bothered by their interrupting me.

drag queen?  BFD.  I figure anyone sharing my household gets to listen
to my opinion of their behavior in the house, but the people down the
street neither care or want to hear what I think of their housekeeping
or their taste in music or who they sleep with or how much makeup or
motor oil they feel like putting on before going out for the evening.
