Ah, sarcasm...

On Dumbledore:What? What?! You're telling us the courtly old British gentleman who never got married and who always dressed in purple and lavender robes was... gay?!

No! No, I refuse to believe it! It simply can't be true!

Hey, when are you going to make an article about that homeopathy link I sent you?

[brokenhut]

I hadn't thought about it, to be honest. James Randi beat me to it, and he's got a beard which I don't.

From what I've read Randi worked with Horizon to replicate the experiment, and they found that the results could not be reproduced. However it appears that they didn't properly reproduce the experiment http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_memory

It would be interesting to see if there were follow on studies to see if her results could be reproduced. I consider peer reviewed papers to be of much higher value than documentaries like Horizon and the opinions of Randi.

I don't have journal access; if you do, this seems to be the source.

I do have journal access, but I hadn't looked up / read the paper before because I was hoping you would do all the leg work as you post so often about homeopathy.

[brokenhut]

You admit it! Laziness! :-)

I don't post about homeopathy that much do I? Obviously I'm becoming dull!

[ex_robhu]

Well, you post about it a lot more than everyone else I know (who don't post about it at all).
