_S_U_M_M_A_R_Y_:

     `neuro' is a matrix containing times of observed firing
     of a neuron in windows of 250ms either side of the
     application of a stimulus to a human subject.  Each row
     of the matrix is a replication of the experiment and
     there were a total of 469 replicates.

_N_O_T_E_:

     There are a lot of missing values in the matrix as dif-
     ferent numbers of firings were observed in different
     replicates.  The number of firings observed varied from
     2 to 6.

_S_O_U_R_C_E_:

     The data were collected and kindly made available by
     Dr. S.J. Boniface of the Neurophysiology Unit at the
     Radcliffe Infirmary, Oxford.
