I was watching this rerun tonight where Kramer has a seizure whenever he hears Mary Hart's voice. Either Jerry or Elaine says it's just like that woman in Albany...
Was this based on a true event? Did anyone have such a strong aversion to Hart's voice?

In 1991, the New England Journal of Medicine reported that Hart's voice, perhaps best described as perky, had triggered seizures in an epileptic woman. [1] This was later referenced in an episode of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld, where Kramer (Michael Richards) suffers from convulsions whenever he hears Hart's voice.
It is an actual event...also called the Mary Hart Syndrome..

Ah, so this is why Elaine makes the connection almost immediately. I was always a little uneasy with how Elaine figured out what was wrong with the K-Man so quick but if she knew of this then that makes it all good.

Why in the world would you assume that Elaine didn't read each and every issue of the New England Journal of Medicine? After all, she had an IQ of 156. Or was it 80?
Elaine's IQ is 80 when she is ot having sex.
