TO Kees Paap, and PIEnet: I heard on the radio that Bill Gates (Microsoft) donated some 6 BILLION DOLLARS to provide vacinations for children, I did not hear the details, but he intends to donate 95 percent of his earnings to charity. I have no idea how to reach him directly and he must be inundated with requests, but if he could donate ONE BILLION DOLLARS to Parkinson's research I would expect that could shorten the time required to find the cure, at least to the extent that money alone could help. Does anyone here have a way to reach Bill Gates and educate him on why Parkinson research is so urgent at this point? Ken B
