Out at 8:30 to join Joanne, who is back from her travels, in a fast walk up to Trader Joe’s. Then spent the rest of the morning thinking about various tasks and emailing people and trying to coordinate things.
Determined to catch up on reading, spent a couple hours at that. At 3:30 went to the auditorium to hear a presentation on Parkinson’s disease. Had expected talk about symptoms and treatments, but the speaker, Dr. Michael Okun, was interested in the public health side, the rise in number of cases, increasing faster than Alzheimer’s, possible causes (pesticides? TCE?) and such. Although his book is about how to live with Parkinson’s.
The book might be interesting, Dennis check it out, but his presentation today was not really that interesting. There is another lecture at 7:30 about the Stanford travel plan but I don’t care, I’m staying in to read.
