I LEARNED YESTERDAY THAT SEVERE ANGINA ATTACKS CAN BE TRIGGERED NOT ONLY BY PHYSICAL EXERTION AND EMOTIONAL STRESS, BUT ALSO BY INTELLECTUAL ANGST: I WAS READING THAT BLIND MUSLIMS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE SEEING-EYE DOGS BECAUSE DOGS ARE CONSIDERED UNCLEAN IN SACRED ISLAMIC TEXTS. ONE IS FORBIDDEN EVEN TO ENTER A HOME WHERE A DOG IS A PET. BLACK DOGS ARE TO BE KILLED. I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHY, BECAUSE I HAVE CERTAINLY READ WORSE THINGS, BUT THIS MADE ME SO ANGRY THAT MY NECK AND SHOULDERS TIGHTENED UNTIL THEY HURT, AND THEN THE PAIN MOVED INTO THE MIDDLE OF MY CHEST IN CLASSIC ANGINA PECTORIS FASHION. PERHAPS IGNORANCE, AFTER ALL, IS BLISS; BUT I GUESS IT'S TOO LATE FOR ME TO CATCH IT.
