A Conversation for Body odour
A907058 - Body odor
Monsignore Pizzafunghi Bosselese Posted Dec 30, 2002
No it doesn't. It's a nice fragrant piece!
Just two niggles:
'on decomposes sweat' should be 'and decomposes sweat', and there's something missing here: '...when stimulated by.'

Thanks for pointing that out! Must have been an overlooked artifact of incomplete editing by me.

Good entry 
'odor' needs to be 'odour' though, to meet the requirements of the edited guide

I smell a future Edited Guide entry here!
I think it'd be worth going a bit more deeply into what's in anti-perspirants and how they work. There's some info on that, and some very interesting stuff about pheromones, here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/features/body_odour.shtml.
One more Edited Guide style point: numbers up to and including ten should be written out as words. I think you've got an 8 and a 9 in that unfinished sentence mentioned in a previous posting.

There's still something missing in 'when stimulated by'. By what? Hormones?
You could also link to A664021 - Detecting Lies on the section where you explain the sweating of the palms in stress situations.
Apart from that this Entry is very ready to go in my humble oppinion. Good job.

You're right, it has been fixed... except for the "odor" to "odour" thingy.
Still, nice entry.
