Dear Squiggles:
The medical term for "poop-out" is tachyphylaxis.It would have been easy for you to just check on it first. I found your initial reply to my post both ignorant and insulting. I hope you find my sources persuasive. I would appreciate if you would give me the benefit of the doubt from now on.
Pearls. I believe my post concerning tachyphylaxis came before yours.
