If Archbishop Tutu appeared on our screens, we would have had black screens.

leader, is being, er, umm, not being taken seriously enough by us folks..
Why are there so few responses? <<<
I dont worry, but wonder where all those religious listmembers are that
could write enormously long letters about the help of God and their
religion in coping with PD, strongly argumenting their pro-life point of
view,
now not being able to write anything to connect PD and God with Tutu
as an intermediair.

No Ivan, you are very if not too much anxious about everything!!
Force yourself to take a strong attitude against this PD-symptom.

No, only his outdated glasses............8<{))))))}}
>>>Please try to respond<<<
I 've seen no address of Archbishop Tutu to
send a message to. Most people IMO would
like to decide for themselves whether to respond
through you or directly to Archbishop Tutu.

No (see earlier comment): his glasses, definitively.........
>>>the point is what do you want us to say<<<
the point is: what do YOU want to say.
Just say it to Tutu (he is only human too).
>>> That suggestion is close to insulting<<<
Insults or assumed insults on the list should not be responded to
(not seriously anyway), but reported to the list-owner in the fullest
confidence that, if necessary, she will take appropriate action.
Just (try to) ignore the mental tricks PD plays on us.........

You forgot to mention his GLASSES!!!

I do: he is black, even without his glasses.

An eye for an eye, a bigot for a bigot, an insult for an insult............

My dear friends,
How are we ever going to overwin our common enemy,
Parkinson, if we keep going for eachothers throats instead
of Parkinson's. A useless waste of energy........................
