William: Thanks for the informative primer on Sinemet; I enjoyed it and found it very helpful. I've always been amazed at how normal and great I feel upon awakening, with no medicine in my system, and often joke about how I hate mornings 'cause that's as good as I'm going to feel all day. True to your primer, this fine condition regularly deteriorates after being up for an hour or so, especially if I'm on the computer. I can delay the negative symptoms by going outside shooting baskets, but I'll pay the price when I come back inside and try to read the paper. John Bjork
