RTK.NET Mail 212883 Oct 7 13:41:19 1996 While nothing makes an impression like a personal visit or mail and calls from constituents, I personally believe that any communication in high volume will get noticed in a vague but significant sense: staffers will get the feeling that lots of people, even if many of them are not constituents, care about the Udall bill and Parkinson's research. You probably won't get a reply, and it may not even be counted, but often in meetings with staffers we can get them to commit to make a more active appeal if they recollect getting cards or letters about the Udall bill. Any support is welcome, and you may want to look for ways you might get more PD care and research support within your country as well. Sherri Cave [log in to unmask]
