I want to know what country has the most incidence of PD. To me just saying North America or Europe or Great Britian is not defining enough. If someone has done this study and any of you are aware of it , please let me know. Are people in urban areas more prone to PD or is it the rural areas where it seems to hit the hardest. If it is rural, is it caused by fertilizers, pesticides or well water, or septic tanks? In cities, could it be smog, the stress of overcrowding, or waiting forever for trains and drawbridges? Like you, I want to view the world as a whole community, however, in this electronic age, we are all only minutes apart. I would like to see little pins all over the map of the world showing were each PWP lives. Also, I know that there are many, many other countries who are not on our PD listserve. I really wish we could make contact with some of them. Does anyone know if there is a country where there isn't any PD? You see Kees, my brain is willing, but my body can't keep up!!! That is the story of every PWP in the world!!!! When I can go back 7 generations in my family and NO ONE has ever had PD, its rather hard to accept this family gene thing. Thanks for your poem to Will. That was very nice of you. I have already told Will he certainly doesn't owe me an apology. As Ever, Marjorie Moorefield just another librarian (with PD)
