    Goes back to that self important fool factor I mentioned earlier.
    Quite often these sorts of loons claim some degree of clairvoyance or ability to cure sickness with crystals or reiki too.

    Ok , so if you feel strongly enough about the enchanted water to complain to the commerce commission they say if they get enough complaints they'll investigate.
    I didn't actually know that would investigate these shysters, be great to have him fined and shut down

    Someone sent this to a Green mp and here's a scientists response. I'm guessing the fluoride zealot was probably trying to help and didn't realise how insensitive they were being but ffs a closed mouth gathers no feet lady.

    Dear Lorraine, I noticed that last week you chose to send this message to Green Party MP Julie Anne Genter: Having read the original message I’ve decided not to identify you other than by you…

    @jegga Sadly these people will only start to smell the coffee when they start getting sick and maybe start dying

    Updated: Vaccine-autism study retracted — again

    For the second time, a journal has quickly retracted a study that suggested vaccines raise the risk of autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders. The study first raised a furor last year, promp…

    Ok ... accupuncture ...

    ... Doc, who is reportedly quite old school (as suggested by his practice partner one day when I had to see him instead) is right into accupuncture.

    Has got me to be stuck with needles for a couple of weeks (disc, back, nerve issue).

    Frankly .... it's doing absolutely nothing. Just as expected.

    Am quite astonished though that a modern trained medical doctor is into accupuncture.

    Physios do it a lot, seems to work for them. Maybe your guy is doing it wrong?

    @canefan
    Look I was prepared to accept that there may be some possibilty of some basis to it.

    But Wiki (I know I know) tells me it's less successful than placebo. That makes it as effective as homeopathy... sign me up! I'll drink water!

    @booboo I've known enough people that I respect that have had acupuncture and feel it works. I've also known people for whom it did nothing. Maybe @canefan is right - it depends on who is administering it.

    Time for you to look into iridology I think

    My wife is a physio and has trained in acupuncture. She and her NHS colleagues say it works for a certain type of person. The medical evidence says its no better then placebo. I will take a peer reviewed Cochrane collaboration over all the anecdotal evidence that can be provided, thanks very much.
