Good morning Rik. Hope you are enjoying your life and your beliefs. Things are fine with my world and beliefs too, so no need for worry there, mate. Don't worry I won't be trying to sell you my beliefs. I like them but you go with what works for you chum.
Wow, looky there. Someone, somewhere agrees with you Rik. They even wrote it down on the internet and everything. That's nice. Enjoy the moment.

I beg your pardon.
No nerves?
The third possibility was that information
about lighting was transmitted
to the pineal by nerves. Fortunately
Arisns Kappers had just identified the
nerve connections of the rat pineal as
coming from the sympathetic nervous
system. We found that if the sympathetic
pathway to the pineal was interrupted
by the removal of the superior
cervical ganglion, the ability of melatonin-forming
activity to be altered by
light was completely lost. Thus it appeared
that light was stimulating the
retina and then information about this
light was being transmitted to the pineal
via sympathetic nerves. Within the
pineal the sympathetic nerves probably
released neurohumors (noradrenaline or
serotonin), which acted on pineal cells
to induce (or block the induction of)
HIONIT; this enzyme in turn regulated
the synthesis of melatonin.
