I've seen slides showing a cross-section of the brain, and PWP don't
have the dark line which is the substantia nigra.  I'm afraid it's white
for PWP - at least those who are dead and have donated their brains to
medical research.  I don't think the substantia nigra cells are dormant,
they're gone.
