[D66] Zou dit waar zijn? Doorbraak ?

[Erik van den Muijzenberg]

Henkie, hou toch eens op met je infantiele gespam!
Dit is een *discussie*lijst. Over zaken die iets te maken hebben met  
*D66*.

Dat er een nieuw geneesmiddel is ontdekt is mooi, en je kunt daar ook
gerust over schrijven, op je eigen blog. Maar niet hier s.v.p.

Vriendelijk dank voor je begrip en medewerking.
