I forgot something that is important to some of you.  Monday, March 6, at the
evening news which is either at 10 or 11 PM on channel 5 our of Chicago,
Station WMAQ-TV will be interviewing Dr. Penn, neurosurgeon with Rush-Pres
Medical Center.  As I understand it, the interview will be about 3 minutes.
 They asked for my video which I provided FX Saturday AM.  My video runs 75
minutes and I did say they could cut and paste a little.  I would like some
one to tape it and send it to me (if they used any of my video).  At least
let me know what was said.
 
The WSJ article started a lot of publicity for Parkinson's disease.  All
three major networks will be doing something on the pallidotomy.  We saw what
ABC did.  I know what NBC is doing I just do not know when.  And CBS has been
calling people, so I assume something is going on.  The LA TImes is expected
to follow a patient through the pallidotomy at UCI with Dr. Michael Dogali.
 That may be this week.  Keep your eyes open in the smog for this one.
 
Since I published the Movers & Shakers newsletter listing neurosurgeons
performing pallidotomy / thalamotomy surgery, I have  been told about four or
five more.  Possibly AZ, CO, TX, MO and FL.  I am checking these out.  This
is why discussing neurosurgeons is very important.
