Re: [Lyme-aid] Texas Senate Hearings on Tick-borne Diseases

[Guest guest]

Hi R.J.

I read this article about Senator some time ago, very impressive political career and life, this man is to be admired, I am quite sure the less than flattering reports are highly exaggerated. You are sure lucky to have this guy on your side, he makes Wayne look like a wimp.

Hugs,

Recent postings have announced Texas Senate hearings about tick-borne diseases; scheduled March 16th, 2000 in Austin, May 9th in Dallas, with a 3rd unscheduled meeting sometime later in the year, probably in Houston.

The hearings will be chaired by Texas Senator . Senator is also a Lyme disease victim, whose debilitation was so severe that his shoulders had to be reconstructed. He is also a very, very effective politician, hence his consistant return to office. If you'd life to read more about him, you can read a lengthy, often not very flattering, article at

Personally, I like the guy for his guts and determination, if not always for his style.
