Go to: http://www.geocities.com/murraycharters/ Click on VIP Scroll down aand click on Search PubMed "parkinson" Restructure the default search for "parkinson" by adding search words... Search for "parkinson" AND alcohol Search for "parkinson" AND ethanol Search for "parkinson" AND methanol Find what appears most relevant and then try clicking on Related Links You should get pretty good results and PubMed is peer reviewed... You can try the same searches in GOOGLE There was a study published last April or May that indicated no link beween parkinson's and alcohol. cheers ....... murray ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
