How did you ever get so damn stupid?

Please describe the difference between a glass of water and a
homeopathic "medicine." Do not use cost as a means of comparison.

That's it then. I have told how to take the first remedy. If you want
more information you will have to do some reading.

Best wishes. Angela.

If you know the message I.D., you can send a cancel request to google.

Last I looked, Google didn't honor cancel requests.
Intermediate servers, OTOH, might.

I cancelled mine at the newsserver at work, within minutes of posting. You
may be right.

But neither DC nor you have the slightest bit of interest in knowing why Rich
nuked his.

Of course if that had been me, the interest would be full blast.

What a sorry lot, you guys are.

Angela, can you tell the difference between one homeopathic remedy and
another? Would it surprise you to know that nobody has ever been able to do
this in a controlled setting? Do you think you can? Can you recommend how
somebody could? If not, how can anyone know what one remedy is doing vs.
another?

FWIW, most homeopathics are not in liquid form.

That's one of the things that makes homeopathy even sillier. They
claim that it is something to do with the mythical "memory of water",
but most of it is sold as pills which are either made by successive
dilutions and succussions of lactose or by putting a drop of the magic
water on a lactose tablet and then drying it.

No water. No memory.

No active ingredients.

Isn't is wonderful you can make 'remedies' without
actually having any active ingredients.
Water and lactose, just imagine the markup.

Of course to sell homeopathic 'remedies' one must
posess a line of BS a mile wide.

Oh, Peter, you lack imagination! We've just expanded the field of
homeopathy. We're going to go beyond the tired old "memory of water"
and on to the exciting new concept of "memory of sugar!"

Remember, you read it here first.

Do you have any proof that he did this? It is possible for you to
actually prove that he did. Until you do so, I'll consider your claim
just another one of your unsupported claims.

You sure do have weird interests.

No effects means no Side effects!

Actually, its the "memory of Essential Sugars". Nobody can survive without
these homepathic carbs!
