I want to thank Andrew Patrick for this informative post. I also want to
raise two issues from my perusal of it. First, I note that the FAQ avoids
the issue of an association between temporal lobe epilepsy and
aggressive behaviour. I'm not saying that there _is_ an association, only
that I recall that the issue has come up, and it should be addressed.
Secondly, I'm surprised at the unqualified endorsement of the ketogenic
diet. I'm not aware that the value of this diet has been rigorously
established (by double-blind experiment as opposed to case studies, for
example).
