Hi. Herb here, PWP, 38 years old, 1 year after diagnois. Regarding the "what is this list" controversy, I think it's probably a mistake to try to change what an email list is after it has existed for some time. It's not fair to those that started it and have participated, and it's not practical. I am on several email lists - each has a different style: some are closely moderated, some are free-for-alls. But a list is what it is... However, there is nothing that prevents starting new lists, sub lists, whatever, to meet different needs. They may even alread exist and we just need to know about them. It may seem sad because some will leave, but we each have our own interests and needs, and we deserve to try to meet them. There is nothing wrong with that. I'm relatively new to the list, and I have found it informative, but I frankly can't keep up because of the sheer quantity of postings. (This is not a critique or a request for change, just an observation!) I am mostly interested in the so-called "hard" stuff. I'm also more interested in the issues that face those of us who have the "young" onset version of PD. I'd rather not start my own list... so: does anyone know of another list that might address my needs more closely? AND ON A DIFFERENT TOPIC -- My right (bad) hand is very often cold - much colder than the other hand. Does anyone have any experience with this problem? Thanks, Herb
