>StJames,
I respect you and am grateful for the advice you have offered me in the past so it is with this respect that I add the following comment--your statement is simply false. Anyone with a cursory understanding of statistics knows that it is almost impossible to prove a negative. Moreover, as viridis so eloquently pointed out, a lot of these things go to something greater than science. I wonder if you could show me a link proving that Jesus was not the son of G-d. (As a Jew, this is my belief but I would laugh at someone who purported to prove it). I see a redirect coming any minute but I hope Dr. Bob recognizes this as a discussion involving medication and alternatives to it.
Thanks for listening.
JACK
P.S. Notwithstanding the above, I ain't sold on homeopathy and have no plans on trying it in the near future.
