One of our list members made the following suggestion. The only error in this message is that it is NOT my list....it's OUR list. Shall we take a vote on this suggestion? How do you all feel about using the word 'disease' in the description of our discussion list? Do you feel that there is a 'stigma' attached to parkinsons? I spoke to my email guru and she says that it is possible to eliminate the word 'disease' if we should decide to do so. Forwarded message: " the word "disease" is to me like a red flag is to a bull. I just wonder if it strikes you the same way? If you don't like it either, one might think of possibly deleting it from the list name, if that is possible. It is your list and I really have no business even asking you to change it's name. However, it is my belief that there is still a certain stigma attached to Parkinsons and, deleting a misleading description might help in overcoming that."
