It's been several weeks since I last received any posting from this most interesting list. As I have been afflicted with PD for nearly 25 years, I have naturally more than a passing interest in the topic. The sudden and total silence of this (sometimes excessively) garrulous list leads me to conclude that either I have been (involuntarily) removed from the list (in which case I beg to be reinstated) or that the list is (temporarily, I hope) out of business or (Heavens forfend!) permanently defunct.
