Hi Janet,
Don't take my "math" as a literal exact accounting.  That was not
the point or intent... Sorry, I didn't convey my message clearly...

The "math" I tried to point out was .1% or 1 in a thousand...
I guess I should have said....

I get most of my Parkinson's knowledge from interacting with all
of you on the list, as I'm sure many, if not most, will readily agree.

Before the List I knew zip...  now I'm "1 in a thousand" with all of you.
For each of us there are "999" others wandering through Parkinson's
without the knowledge, care, and support this List provides...

Shouldn't we share??  ..........................  murray

hi murray

the math won't work because
the country designations don't really work

internet addresses like .com and .net and .edu
are counted as usa even though they may not be

internet addresses like aol.com
[the largest single provider in pieNET by far]
and compuserve.com etc. are counted as usa even though
they have customers/users around the world

it's a conundrum of ethereal dimensions...
