Didn't work out too well for him. The problem is finding a pair of twins, having one in a controlled envirion free of all stress (which to me is virtually impossible save for keeping them in a catatonic state 24/7), and bombarding the other one with stress. While the twins might be willing to be part of the experiment, neither one would want to be the stress twin.

Interesting to see the difference/similiarities between twins.
