>> You all remember back in the 50's or early 60's there was a
 public service commercial  about : "Mental Retardation strikes every 8
seconds"  or something like that! My question is --Has anyone ever figured
how often PD strikes?  Let's figure it for the world now--not just the
U.S.!!!<<

If there are 50,000 new PD cases in the US each year that works out to
roughly one new case every 10 minutes.  As for the world? .  .  .  I guess
that's why we need a worldwide registry.

Pass the Udall Bill in 96.
