---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 1 Mar 1996 05:38:11 -0500 From: John Morey <[log in to unmask]> To: Barbara Patterson <[log in to unmask]> This is my first shot at communication to this group. My spelling is the pits and I miss a spell checker( after 15 min. of trying to spell cholesterol I had to look at the side of a cerial box to get it right!!). Question: Is there a group that has as its focus exchange of information on industrial chemical exposure as a cause of PD? This would be esp. relivant to the semiconductor industry ( acetone, MEK, alcohol, trichlor- and perchlorethelene, xilene, hexamethyldisilazane, all the acids, etc.)? Is the occurance of PD greater in certain industries than others? Is there a study taking place on this? Has anyone looked at the fiberglas boating industry(acetone, resine, MEK, etc.)? Thanks in advance for any info. JOHN
