Does anyone know? I have heard from all sources thus far that we don't have a definitive answer, but thought someone here may have run across an explanation.
 
The explanation we got in class (that I can remember offhand) seemed kind of bs'y, maybe all the details not worked out, but having to do with persistent stimulation of ab production due to constant epitope exposure
