Dear ListMembers: I am deeply saddened re: recent events on The List, although I chose to remain uncharacteristically silent.Tonight I feel I must speak. I came to this ListServ as a newly diagnosed PWP who felt terrified and alone. I gained computer-literacy out of a desperation born of a need to access this information goldmine re: our common enemy, Parkinson's disease. Through this forum I met some of the most intelligent, caring, humorous individuals I have ever known. I consider many of you friends. I allowed you, via the Internet, into my home and my heart. I have also witnessed the List's dark side, those times when we forget the real enemy and turn on each other in a feeding frenzy. Never has this been more evident than in recent weeks. Shall we blame that silent scapegoat, Mr.PD? Or look in the mirror and blame ourselves? Carole Hercun 54/51/?45 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
