Just a few reminders:
1. Please do NOT include the entire text of the message to which you
are replying. Including it overloads everyone's email. If you
need to include some of it to ensure you cover all the items you
wish to, please delete all but the necessary items.
2. Please do NOT send huge files to the list. Post a message to the
list explaining what the file is and how to get it. That way,
those who are interested will be able to get the file and those
who are not will not be inconvenienced.
3. If you are sending multiple postings, please spread them out over
a couple of days (exception to that is anything to do with the
Udall bill that requires prompt action!)
4. If you are receiving any 'odd' or unusual email messages, please
forward them to your service provider and let him/her know that
you have a concern about the message. In the last few weeks, we
have had dozens of subscriptions from what I am assuming are
hackers who have nothing better to do with their lives that make
trouble for others. I have deleted those subscriptions which
were obviously from these idiots but some may have got on the list.
This morning when I checked my email, I had 497 messages. I had checked
it just before I went to bed last night. Most of these messages were
error reports from the listserver...mostly quotas exceeded. Please, if
you are going away for a while, change your settings to nomail. I will
include with this message a reminder of how to interact with the
listserver. Thank you all for your attention to these matters.

The PARKINSN Guide
HOW TO POST A MESSAGE TO PARKINSN:
send mail message to: [log in to unmask]
When you post a message, it is helpful if you
sign it and add your email address. As example:
Barbara Patterson ([log in to unmask])
Many PARKINSN subscribers have mail headers which don't
display the origin of the note.
HOW TO INTERACT WITH THE LISTSERVER:
To talk to the listserver, you want to send mail to the
LISTSERVER, not to everyone on PARKINSN. Send a regular
mail message to:

commands:
