  It might depend on the context of whichever article they were
quoting?  Sometimes a condition might have cases where *some types of
e.g. seizures, might originate from a set of sources. But since there
are so many *types of electical mis-firings of Neurons that can
trigger one of our types of Seizures, it's difficult/to risky,
sometimes, to generalize and suggest for example, 'all types of
raspberry jam can cause seizures'....  I made that up, but from time
to time have seen either articles referenced, or posts here or on the
UK (defunct) group, that proposed to provide the One True cause of all
our seizure types...

There was an article I saw years ago too, that included some types of
Brain Effects caused to a yet-to-be born child by either illnesses the
Mother might have had (and not necessarily aware of) during pregnancy
(including Meningitis? and Encephalitis too), and even some types of
Anti-biotic Needles to pre-treat things like Measles, Smallpox, etc.
given when they didn't realize that a woman was pregnant.   (I think
some of the latter were prevalent, in certain areas of the world, and
caused by a vaccine not being properly sterilized? before it was used
as an injection.)
   It probably makes it more difficult to wonder 'where it came
from', or what caused it, versus my case where the Dr. (Neuro)
commented mine was *unusual in that it didn't start in early 1980s
soon after the Encephalitis, but turned up in 1993, almost 14 years
after initial brain damage.  The Memory disfunction from Sept.1979
through ~1987 was severe enough that I couldn't have used this
computer, as there wasn't enough Short Term Memory (from Rt. Temporal
Lobe damage), to remember on a 'next screen'  what I just *left behind
on a previous screen. Since I had originally specialized in Computer
Stuff, while 'Bill' (Gates) was still in Elementary school, I had to
depend on a College Chum who had learned computers at a High School
where he was teaching, after I got my first home computer.

   Did some of your Artistic Interests develop ***around that time
(during or following your onset?) or did that come along later?
  There are a *lot of people within the Music, Art, and Science areas
who were listed on U.S. Ep. Foundation site as having had or thought
to have had, exposure to epilepsy during their childhood, youth or
'early maturity' (under e.g. about 25).  G./

 Hi.  If he's posting 'on there too'  (he hasn't turned up on an
Astronomy Group, 'Chocolate' Dessert group (hey, we all need a
hobby !! ),  or another Social Group I read.
   But from time to time, I've sometimes clicked onto someone who
didn't *sound like they had Seizures (usually when they start a post
here with 'you people shouldn't be so sensitive about...' as most of
us don't call the rest of us 'you people'...   *If I see that someone
has posted to more than just This Group, I'll usually start a New
Subject behind it, and post the headers and Groups list if they are
simultaneously posting to more than this group.   In that case someone
just clicking on Reply to Group, who doesn't notice there are 3-5
groups listed at top of their reply, will put their Email address to
groups they might not wish to be visible on.
  I found after I've posted **here, my Sign-on Spamkiller Software
will trap *40-50 messages the next morning, up from *10, so this group
is being Trolled by Robot computers.  If someone is posting to
multiple groups (like you might have found) where he'd not usually be
expected to post on e.g. 30+ groups, then you might have found a
Phisher (someone who Fishes groups looking for addresses to resell).
The main reason most of us use Spamkiller and AntiViral programs.
*If I find someone who's apparently not experiencing e.g. Seizures,
nor knows someone who has them, I report them to their providers with
headers showing real source of mails or posts. I don't post when I do
that here any longer. I only post if I see someone replying to a
potential Phisher who likely is not one of us, as it's easier to get
the main provider to clean up their member list.  The Responsible
Providers don't want to be identified as sites who support trolls and
phishers.  It cuts into their business and loses them valid customers.
End rambling.   G./
