How about Ralph Nader? That droopy eye of his ... does anybody else wonder if he is one of us? Bill

Nader has Bell's Palsy according to http://www.bellspalsy.org.uk/home.htm Wonder about Bill Cosby - couldn't find out why his eye droops. Cosby has done fundraising for macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, but according to one article, neither he nor anyone in his family has a blinding eye disease. "The Telltale Eye" - wasn't that a story by Edgar Allen Poe??

Right on about the story being "The Telltale Heart." And I might add, someone mentioned here awhile back that Poe may have had CH. I don't think so. He was very likely bi-polar (since he unknowingly writes of the symptoms himself), among other things, and did die of a brain infection. His medical records still exist from his last days. He never, to my knowledge wrote of headaches. If anyone knows differently I would like to read the material. Bill

| Not sure Nader knows what Nader is. I don't think helps the cause anymore. I think you're right that he has something. It seems I read it somewhere. No one so loved a rotting corpse than Poe.....Not all that tightly wired but impossible for me tp put down. Cosby? I have no idea. Charlie
