By the way - who has seen this? One of Dr Mattmans footnotes on the

subject (ed 3 page 122) points to a ref not actually concerning

treponemes - it seems to be a error.

I have been trying to get something else she references in this

connection, " Cycle Evolutif du Treponema Pallidum [...], " but its a

lil obscure, I checked the whole magazine rack at 7-11 and didnt see

it maybe I can get it at the Natl Lib Medicine.

I do have the Warthin aortic focal lesions autopsy from ~1930, thats

an interesting read.

Apparantly theres also a review re evidence for suboptical forms

(which I think concludes they dont exist, perhaps rather cavalierly)

somewhere in a huge review from the 1970s published under the

auspices of the WHO - Natl Libe of Medicine doesnt have it, I guess

they can probably order it for me.
