^^^^^^WARM GREETINGS FROM^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Ivan Suzman 48/12 [log in to unmask] Portland, Maine Land of lighthouses 63 deg. F sunny ******************************************************************* Dear Bill, Several of us are perplexed by one statement you made in your message. You recommend that we do NOT contact Senator Specter. Can you please explain why you suggest that we do NOT contact him? I thought that contacts with each and every Senator should be explored whenever possible. If I were a constituent of Senator Specter, woudln't I want to let him know of my views about full funding of the Udall Act, so that there is a continued PD community voice for coordinated research, all directed to curing PD? Does MIchael Claeys of P.A.N. or Paul Smedburg of A.P.D.A. agree or disagree with Bill? Thank you all for your opinions. They are highly valued by our e-rmail community.
