[lbo-talk] Antidepressant drugs may protect brain from damage due to depression

[Michael Dawson -PSU]

OK, Brian.  Our use of "substance" has been a metaphor, albeit a productive

"ultimate thing?"  "Substance of value" means "that thing or process or
reality that we want to measure and track because it produces value."

Better?
