i have discontinued selegiline a couple of times for several weeks
the only effect i noticed was an intensification of my symptoms

i'm sorry you interpreted my message as a 'broadside'
i certainly don't intend waging any battles

which is the way i had hoped you would take my previous note
we are all here for pretty much the same purpose, i believe

thank you - current information is critical to all of us

as i have stated before,
my purpose in posting is to provide the information
but also to incorporate it into our archives for future use
[and maybe an 'aha!' or two]

you are entitled to your opinion and perception
one wo/man's torrent may be another's delight
in the many comments that i have received re my postings
yours has been the only negative one so far

that's a difficulty/choice that only you can resolve
it is also one that all of us are faced with,

>...I don't want to stop you,

i would never dream of attempting to stop anyone else's postings
and i would resist vehemently any attempt to stop mine
unless our esteemed list owner made the request

>and indicate each article's relevance to PD...

i'm afraid that i don't understand the 'leaf' reference
but i have made a conscious effort
to indicate the subject matter of each message quite clearly
[also from the archive searching point of view]
i'm sorry that you were having difficulty in that area
