Linda - I agree with your letter to Barbara Patterson. This tradegy has upset many of us who have PD (I don't) or love someone who does (I do). Not just the demolitions themselves but from the financial destruction ensuing from this. Many are more worried about the status of the U.S.'s future and the potential war and destruction of more of our young men, than they are about their own health. These thoughts need to be shared at this time, and I hope the list owners let us continue in this vein until we all settle down and get back into more technical matters. There are some on the list who are absolutely fanatical about keeping the subject on PD ONLY. Let them also speak their piece. Best wishes to you.
