Great idea for compiling a list.  Actually Johnny Cash has SDS (Shy-Drager
Syndrome) a form of Multiple System Atrophy.  Dudley Moore has PSP
(Progressive Supranuclear Palsy).  SDS/MSA & PSP are all considered
Parkinson Plus disorders.  Incidentally I heard last night on Entertainment
Tonight that on 20/20 tonight (Friday) Barbara Walters will be interviewing
Dudley Moore.

Regards,
Pam
