Joan... I figured I'd invite every Parkie in the entire world to that that meeting (I run on the "If some is good, more is better" principle) <smile> in order to lay it ALLLLLLLL out before the press, but hey.... I thought again when I pictured Encino Hospital's reaction when I told 'em their kitchen should plan on making 24 million cookies (allowing several cookies for each attendee), instead of the three dozen or so they usually provide us at our support group meetings. Seriously, I'm still stunned at this opportunity. In fact, the reporter's coming over today, in a few minutes (it's 8:50 a.m.) photographer, in order to take my pix to accompany the article, and had I had enough time to think this over, I'd have invited several PWPs that I know to come to see if they'd have a chance to get a word in. Oh well.... next time time....
