According to Kandel, Schwartz, and Jessel (2000) in _Principles of
Neural Science 4E_ (which is the most recent edition that I have), "The
human enteric nervous system has 80-100 million neurons, approximately
as many as are found in the spinal cord (p 994). I consider KS & J a
pretty reliable source.
