I found a lot of useful addresses. Why am I interested in P ? My father (age 86) has it for many years and is now in a VERY sorry state. In my surfing the WWW net I found a description of a "renewed" brain operation called Pallidotomy. It sounds very promising - but seems to be too late for my father. I collected a list of URL pointers regarding Parkinson and Pallidotomy. I hope the people on this list understand what I am talking about - regarding "computerese". If not, please ask and I can explain. How many people are on this list?
