Is there really an SNS component to the pterygopalatine ganglion? There is definitely a PSNS component (lacrimal nucleus) which is not mentioned in this article.Hnc 07:26, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

I believe there is an SNS component to the ganglion, in the sense that sensory nerve fibers travel through it. (But I don't have a reference) In any case, there shouldn't be sensory cell bodies in the pterygopalatine ganglion. Robotsintrouble 17:29, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
