    Simplified kinetic synapse mechanism
    ------------------------------------

    Demo file to show the behavior of synaptic currents mediated by
    GABA-A receptors, modeled using a minimal two-state kinetic model.

    Kinetic model from Destexhe, A., Mainen, Z.F. and Sejnowski, T.J.
    Neural Computation, 6: 14-18, 1994.

  See details in:

  Destexhe, A., Mainen, Z.F. and Sejnowski, T.J.  Kinetic models of 
  synaptic transmission.  In: Methods in Neuronal Modeling (2nd edition; 
  edited by Koch, C. and Segev, I.), MIT press, Cambridge, 1998, pp. 1-25.
