hi all for those newbies who may not know me well: i am thrilled to see so much interest lately in my quotation (QT: ) postings each one usually jumps out at me from some source or other and sings to my heart about an important idea since they usually are not directly "related to pd" i take pains to ensure they are clearly labelled as "QT: " so that those who are not interested need not even read them; that being said, i am grateful for the many compliments i have received for posting them "related to pd" can be a judgement call and may be subject to one's own experience and perception after 17 years of symptoms pd is part of me and who i now am pd has changed me in many ways from who i was pre-pd i cannot separate me into disparate parts all aspects of me affect all other aspects of me as a perky and prolific poster to the parkinsn list since 1995 my motivation has been and still is twofold: to share and communicate now viz you and me this minute and to share and communicate in the future via the parkinsn list archives for instructions on how to manage your parkinsn subscription and also how to search the 9 year old goldmine which is the archive see this page on my website: the list http://www.geocities.com/janet313/pienet/5th/index.html here are some search examples: > search * in parkinsn where subject contains QT: and sender contains 313 -> 448 matches (only the first 100 will be shown). > search * in parkinsn where subject contains PMID: and sender contains 313 -> 458 matches (only the first 100 will be shown). > search * in parkinsn where subject contains NEWS: and sender contains 313 -> 772 matches (only the first 100 will be shown). the above search commands ( > ) could be further pruned by replacing the astirisk ( * ) with Einstein or Rinne or Rajput janet former parkinsn list-co-owner and elfette janet paterson: an akinetic rigid subtype, albeit primarily perky, parky pd: 55/41/37 cd: 55/44/43 tel: 613 256 8340 email: [log in to unmask] smail: 375 Country Street, Almonte, Ontario, Canada, K0A 1A0 a new voice website: http://www.geocities.com/janet313/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
