Excellent post.  After world war two they also found a lot of the
people who died and had an autopsy performed had MS type of lesions
found in the brain.  Many of these people didn't exhibit any signs of
MS either.  Of course just having the lesion in the brain didn't mean
that the person definitely had MS but it also showed that many more
people then were previously thought had these types of lesions in
their brains.
Best of luck,
Frank.
