Homeopathy is not science. What makes you think there are scientists at
a homeopathy convention?

Polio is still a problem. From today's NYTimes

I don't know who this "Boindexeter" is. How do you know that he hasn't
ever gone to a homeopathetic conference.?

Of course, almost nobody has ever "walked into a Homeopathy convention
and discussed ANYTHING with real scientists" because that would not be
the place to look for them.

Yeah apparently "Dick" Schultz couldn't believe I was referring to HIM
AS DICK either.

Boindexter is a play on "Poindexter" the scientific young man in the
Felix the Cat cartoons.

I've discovered, particularly with regard to Dick, that intelligent
and polite
conversation does not work. (Did you hear that dufus?)
But with insults, I actually got Dick to talk about chemistry, give
some information,
and he even forgot to put the "You don't have a clue" at the end of
his post.

Felix the Cat, probably never shown down under, Pity.

Talk later Boinee - but meanwhile I'm curious - HAVE YOU EVER ACTUALLY
READ
A BOOK ON HOMEOPATHY.... ANY BOOK?

Heaven forbid!! I don't know how I missed that since I read
every single word and posting that you post, so packed with
information,
details and links they are (??!!), oh yes, can't see how I missed it.

Schultz is not 'down under". Add geography to your ever growing list

Yes, I knew that. I just wondered who you were referring to, as there
is nobody here by that name and only a kindergarten child would find
amusement in pretending that somebody had a funny name.

Felix the Cat was invented by an Australian, Pat Sullivan. Add another
