I mis-spoke, perhaps....meaning that there really are no unique variables that 
ONLY exist to one person on earth.  If enough data is gathered on a population, 
the "unique" or should I say less appearing variables we call unique, would  be 
detectable and the statistical model would show us what contribution that 
particular "unique variable" makes and if it is significant in the outcome.
 
I guess my next question would be to ask the members to list variables they 
consider unique to a person that have an impact on the treatment they provide.

I  don't  know  much,  if  anything,  about regression theory, but I'm
pretty  confident  that  it is impossible to take into account ALL the
UNIQUE  variables  that  account  for  healing.  Also, it seems rather
counterintuitive  to  try include a "unique" variable into a "general"
logarithm.
