Howard I am sorry, they are advocates. Tom Isaacs tells a story about a fundraising walk he was in. It was a long one, across England or something like that. During it, the GDNF trial took place and a friend called him and said, "you can stop walking, they've found a cure."

He also recently did a radio show on the BBC about GDNF.

I certainly do remember that song. It was so long ago it is starting to really date us...lol
