Barbara Yacos was one of my favorites. She could cut to the chase...:) Subject: Wordsmiths I'm not stupid generally speaking (just ask Vern) but I'll be darned if I know what is going on here. I'm certain I'm not alone...so, would someone out there please do us hillbillies a favour and explain the controversy re AOL, the PD internet and those of us suffering with Parkinsons. Use small words and simple sentences and don't talk computerese. Save that for your computer clubs. All we the unwashed public want is an active PD bulletin board where we can learn and teach about this unravelling disease. Don't fail me - I know who you are!!!! Barbara Yacos, R.N.
