From: boulder!snoopy!scottmi@ncar.UCAR.EDU (SCOTT MICHAEL C) I am no biochemist - my specialty is organic synthesis, but the Merck Index very clearly calls Sarin, Tabun and Soman cholesterinaise inhibitors, so I am inclined to believe them. As to the mechanical effects of these nerve agents on human physiology, you will have to excuse any inaccuracies in my posting - I was writing from faint memories of a Fall 1985 lecture on those agents by Prof. Todd Wipke at UC Santa Cruz. --don't like snow, miss Deirdre, and wish I was still in Santa Cruz.
