I realize that this is off topic by a wide margin, but I still request your
support. Some of you may remember my mention of a brother dx'd with ALS a
few weeks ago.

It was unknown to me until today, that my oldest son had become involved
with a local ALS support group; primarily due to his uncle's affliction.

Some of this group are local to the Austin, TX area and may wish to
participate in the up comming walk in Austin on 10/23/04 or contribute to
ALS research at the following address.

I certainly appreciate any help you may provide to research into this
disease (from what I've learned so far, it makes Cpa seem like a walk in the
park).
