I believe that what is meant with the phrase "older explanation" is none other that superstition. Therefore, I will give you one superstitious belief which is now explained by science.
In Southeast Asia, people used to believe that St. Elmo's fire appears in remote areas because a bloody battle occured in that place leaving disembodied souls of the dead wandering there in the night and even in sunshine!
For generations, many people believed that this is a fact and some even say that these apparitions are diabolical or demonic in nature. So often, caution is advised to people whenever a ball of fire appears out in the open.
However, recent breakthroughs in the 21st century helped scientists to explain this mysterious phenomena. They found out that St. Elmo's fire is actually plasma, nothing special. Now, plasma is considered one of the states of matter! But mind you, it still does not explain why St. Elmo's fire seems to have a mind of its own!

Answer:
The ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) most likely produces neuronal special proteins.
Explanation:
Conduction of electrical impulses by action potentials of neurons takes place through controlled flow of charged ions through neuronal membranes. This ion transfer is controlled by specialized neuronal channel proteins which are present in the neuronal cell membrane.
These channel proteins allow for hydrophillic passage of ions and water molecules across the neuronal membranes.
Ribosomes that are attached to the RER are involved in protein synthesis. They carry the code for proteins carried by the mRNA and translate into respective protein.
The RER along with some free ribosomes cluster together as Nissl bodies and are mainly involved in neuronal specialized proteins.
