In reply to Alvin's posting on possible environmental causes---my mom who has Parkinson's spent all of her summers on her grandmother's farm, where there were no indoor toilets, and probably lived in homes for much of her childhood that were equipped with outhouses. The possibility of a rural connection will be interesting, but her sister who grew up in exactly the same environment and is slightly older has no signs of PD. Mary Vass
