Re: Finger Tap Test Program for DOS/Windows

Brian,
I'm a bit confused on this ..... not to be picky or anything but what is the
point of a shorter "tap timelimit"? I'm sure that you've a really valid
reasoning. Surely I'm mistaken in thinking that the "tap stamina" would factor
in somewhere..... how will you quilify the results ? if the tap test is 10
seconds ... will you  times that by 6 to get a "minutes"worth?or even 30
second testings times 2 for a "minute" ... wouldn't the stamina issue factor
into this because of the "pd" quirks? I'll understand completely if you want
to tell me to "shuffle on along" <G> ... just curious that's all. ::: moving

Elf wife to Tony (my hero), and mom to Tori (age 9, nda), Zach (age 7,
multichallenged), Cory (age5, multichallenged). The boys have no definative Dx
but several labels... Ataxia,Nystagmus, Strubismus, Dystonia, Parkinsonism,
Asthma, Execma, Hypotonia, Spasticity....ect  Collectively the
Dystonia/Parkinsonism effects the boys from eyes to toes and progressing
steadily. Currently Cory & Zach are taking Sinemet, Lodosyn and Cory has had 4
rounds of Botox, uses a walker or WC for mobility.

<< Hello Bonnie, Yes, I would like tapping results from people without
Parkinson'S as well
 BUT I CANNMOT use the 60 second result which the program currently gives.
Hopefully
 John Cottingham is working on the change, and we will be up and running.
Meanwhile
 please DO NOT send me 60 second data
