Thank you so much "RespiratoryStudent1"...that was super helpful...you're a life saver!!!!! (wish I could get my instructor to slowwwww down!)

[RespiratoryStudent1]

@rosemarym626 Yeah, I have to periodically ask myself, "Where the heck in the nervous system am I?" Unless you're an expert, it takes some time to get your bearings.

You have saved my ass MANY times. Thank you so much!

Wow, you explain things very well!

[Bigdozer07]

You are brilliant, very articulate and nicely summarised, are you a pH student or just an overintelligent undergrad?? I am at medical school and none of my lecturers have been able to explain this as you do, i have watched all you videos and you have a talent for teaching/explaining...maybe you should consider being a professor later? :) Thanks for the effort to help the rest of us who need it put a wee bit more clearly!
