What on earth happened in 1971 that made PD run wild???
I started thinking when seeing Bryn's pic of him in his much becoming Tigger-suit (alledgedly a birthday present, but we don't believe that, do we....?), taking it easy after his ordeal of entering into the "naughty forties" (I do hope that is not an unappropriate expression in English... if so, I am going after the Brit who wished me welcome into them a few weeks ago... you know who you are...).
The thought I had was not at all related to Winnie the Pooh or even me realising that I will never see the stories of Christopher Robin and friends in the same way again, but more to do with PD.
In my mind I went through my PD-network of friends and a surprisingly large number of them are in their early 40's or slightly younger... I had the good fortune of celebrating my entrance into the lovely age of 40 together with a whole bunch of my wonderful friends a few weeks ago and I know that several others of the PD friends I know from the World Parkinson's Congress in Glasgow last September-October and from other places will join me and Bryn soon.
I had a talk on the subject with Alex (Flynn) and we were wondering whether the world went crazy in the early 70s? Maybe this is a premonition of something? Does anyone know of any large demographic studies that would be relevant?
