    *$%& grano salis

    DW failed the clock drawing tests in Sept 2010

    her symptomatic  impairment clearly dated to 2009 in retrospect

    These tests look at the same time period.    Yes they could screen more people no they are not very useful.

    For myself I play chess with my computer every day .  I rarely lose two games in a row

    Ill know my brain is disrupted if I suddenly learn to spell

    IMHO its just as good a test.
