------ =_NextPart_000_01BD10AD.F73E8C20 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi Barbara, I guess you did not get into the crux of my question. All I = asked was if they had ever attempted to carry the PD torch, being that = they are such a powerful lobby. Read my note again. ---------- From: Barbara Mallut[SMTP:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, December 24, 1997 5:34 AM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: AARP Mario... I've been an AARP (American Assoc. of Retired Persons) <and ya don't = HAVE to be "retired....." just must be 50 or over to join> member for 5 years = and have read every one of their bulletins plus their outstanding magazine - Modern Maturity - that they've sent me over the years. While I find these publications provide an invaluable service to those = of us in the over-fifty age group (and I also like the many discounted = services they offer their members!) <prescription drugs, too!>, I don't recall reading anything of significance or indeed anything at ALL about PD in either = AARP publication. I know AARP has a Web site, but am not sure of the URL (Web address). = Taking a stab at it, I tried to the obvious "www.aarp.com" and got a "Site = under construction" notice and no mention of AARP there. Soooooo.... if = anyone DOES have the correct AARP URL, how's about posting it here for List members = to be able to access this fine organization??? OK.. OK.. now I'm curious! I just took out my AARP file and have = browsed thru the packet looking for that Web address. Ain't there, but then the = packet's 5 years old... BUT - for information or to join AARP (and joining AARP is = one of THE best investments I've made for myself!) <and it's low cost to = join> write to: AARP Member Communications 601 E Street, NW Washington, DC 20049 AARP asks that in writing them, please indicate on the envelope what = you're writing them about, i.e., "membership info requested." For those not familiar with AARP, they offer a ton of services to their members, from publications, to pharmacy, car-home-personal insurance, = credit cards, investments/financial matters, travel and leisure activities, = volunteer services, social outreach support, and much, much more. In my opinion, = AARP is an outstanding advocacy (but conservative) and support service for = the person over 50. Errrrrr..... and I have no financial connection with AARP, nor do I = represent them in any way, other than being a general member who values the = services they provide. Mario - are ya sorry ya asked? <grin> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] ---------- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange on behalf of Mario A. Gonzalez Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 1997 6:41 PM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: AARP I was wondering: Did this most powerful of lobbies ever get involved in = =3D the PD crusade? It would most certainly seem to me that some of the =3D members have PD. I have not heard the AARP mentioned in any of the Mail. Can someone comment? Mario A.
