Hi Ellice

My guess is that you are thinking of a discussion from february 1990 of
"learning disabilities" on XLCHC (and some on XCLASS).
ftp://WEBER.UCSD.EDU/pub/lchc/xlchc/feb92x.gz

and then there was a discussion in the second part of February 1994 about
"ADD" where GC himself participated.

regards
Eva
