A very inventive advocate/artist has put up a short video of several PD patients to bring home the reality of Parkinson's Disease to everyday people. It was conceived as a response to the claims that Michael J. Fox was "acting" or "faking it" or exaggerating his symptoms. It is a work in progress, and anyone with an interest is encouraged to view it and comment in youtube. the link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1L15wsLWquc. You can alao go to youtube and search under Parkinson's or the username herbheinz.
The more people see it, the more people will see it, as youtube uses viewer hits and links much like google to make a video appear more often in searches, etc. So if you like it, spread the word. If you have a web cam and would like to contribute material as this project develops, send me a pm. Thanks Last edited by GregW1; 10-29-2006 at 01:12 AM. Reason: spelling |

"embryonic stem cell research". It's the "embryonic" part that jolts the listener into whatever visions that they have in their mind connecting "the destruction of potential human beings" to "embryonic stem cells".
Shorten it to "stem cell research" and make it clear that it is not just "human" stem cells, or stem cells from human embryos. We're not trying to use "newspeak" on anybody. It's just a shame that the images in peoples mind are frozen in the mode of cell research=killing of potential people. We should make it clear that ANY cell replacement techniques involve the use of a small number of certiain cells that can be magnified into a visible, viable , useful implant by cell culture techniques. Our goal is not to develop an "industry" based on the wholesale destruction of human diploid DNA, but instead to culture cells that belong to the individual themselves. Why is this constantly overlooked? cs |
