yeah but that happens a lot, so it's not the field. the article was written 
by a neuroscientist. I snipped the author bio part to keep it under the 
k-wattage limit:

MARK SOLMS holds the chair in neuropsychology at the University of Cape 
Town in South Africa and an honorary lectureship in neurosurgery at St. 
Bartholomew's and the Royal London School of Medicine and Dentistry. He is 
also director of the Arnold Pfeffer Center for Neuro-Psychoanalysis, a 
consultant neuropsychologist to the Anna Freud Center in London and a very 
frequent flier. He thanks Oliver Turnbull, a senior lecturer at the 
University of Wales, for assisting with this article. Originally published 
in Scientific American Mind, Vol. 17, No. 2, April/May 2006.
