Hot off the press amigos. I dont even have time to chase down the

abstract right now.

I was in large-group daycare at a pre-school age, I think, but in the

first 2 years of life I believe I was coddled in a clean clean house

away from contagion. I am also firstborn of 2 by 2 yrs, which I think

is a risk factor for some idiopathic disease, probably crohns or UC,

according to epidemiology done in Manitoba if I recall.
