citations

Hello fellow wikipedians. I am the person who accidentally added references without bylines (sorry!). While studying for an anatomy exam I found there were a few helpful facts that weren't in the article and added them spur of the moment. I went back and fixed it to the Wikipedia format-clickable citations per the help and projects page. If this suffices, perhaps we can remove the tag that had been assigned to the reference section. Sorry again!

What does Dave Mustaine have to do with this? He Apparantly had this condition and successfully overcame it----

Prognosis

It says "Peripheral nerve regeneration is an imperfect and slow process, and full restoration of ability may take months, years, or may never occur.".

But what imperfect mean? if "full restoration" can be achieved.. What is the meaning of imperfect?

Definition of Saturday Night Palsy

My father, a British WW2 soldier, got what he called 'Saturday Night Palsy' from having his arm around a girl in the cinema all night. He was with the British Army near Dunkirk. It led to him being temporarily invalided, to his anti-aircraft battery being below strength and pulled back closer towards Paris, to being cut off from the main British force during Dunkirk, and to his company having to retreat south to Marseilles.

I mention all this because 1) it was nothing to do with being drunk (closer to what others call honeymoon palsy) and 2) His 'Saturday Night Palsy' could have changed the course of the war! 21:43, 31 May 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grannybuttons (talkcontribs)
