During the past week we have regressed and forgotten what the Parkinsn list is all about. The quality and quantity of mail has been about many things not related to having or curing Parkinson's disease or the discussion of ideas on treatment or caring for others. Parkinsn is not American, Canadian, or European but international. Parkinsn is not Christian, Jewish or Muslim. Prayer is a personal expression of a belief in a god or God or nothing at all. Our subscribers come in all colors, beliefs, and 40 countries of the world. Opinions on anything else except the fight against Parkinson's have no place here. Caring for one another requires nothing but love. Once again, we have seen the resurgence of "Funnies". Parkinsn is not the place for those. Posting of articles not germane to Parkinsn should also be refrained. When in doubt consult the Parkinsn Charter/Guidelines at: http://parkinsons-information-exchange-network-online.com/parkinsn.html Complaints or disputes may be resolved when addressed to the list owners at: mailto:Barbara Patterson <[log in to unmask]> OR mailto:John Cottingham <[log in to unmask]> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
