Could Zamanlf please state what the relationship between neuron
discharge and the EEG is _exactly_ ?
(and the local field potential, for that matter, which _must_ be
understood if one already understands more global electrical activity)
This info will be of interest to many neuroscientists.
The researcher who has discovered such a principle (and can prove it
through experimental investigation) would surely be on the road to the
Nobel prize!

Who is Verzeano? What are the refs for this person's work?
