Interesting. I'm confused by your association of chemistry with what
you're observing though. When you say you suspect a behaviour is "based
on brain chemistry and not on culture," do you have some evidence that
makes you think that? Please say you've been taking biochemical samples
from your clients - that would instantly groovy by any yardstick.

PS: FWIW I've not myself detected the patterns you've observed, but I've
had my fair share of client-related teeth-grinding.
