[Aside from Tom: Cort Johnson has today sent the appended blurb out
with the latest edition of his (free) newsletter "Phoenix Rising".  I
was hoping to maybe stop plugging them by now, hoping that most people
interested would have signed by now; however it keeps getting "bigger
and better" (as an ad says) (the latest one is 18 pages) so thought I'd
do it again.

If you're interested best to sign up as I don't promise to keep make
people aware of them.  Tom K.]

Thanks for subscribing to Phoenix Rising,  a monthly CFS newsletter.
In this December edition the Paper of the Month is the stunning
Baraniuk study that may have found a protein biomarker in the brain.
This paper, which suggests  that CFS patients may have a distinct
neurological disease, could reorient researchers thinking and approach
to CFS.  Two other papers, one by John Chia with his intriguing idea
that it is not enteroviruses but enteroviral RNA that is the problem in
CFS, and one by the  De Meirleir team on immune activation during
exercise round out the research section.  Finally beginning a series of
paper on the large NIH Neuroimmune grant for CFS an overview of the
2003 Neuroimmune conference that inspired it is given.
