Great News!
Apparently I lack the "natural curiosity" to believe everything I read on the Internet!

2. The really funny thing is that on the subject in question,
I spent over an hour late at night looking into the matter. Too bad I wasn't curious enough to use only woo sites--I probably could have reached a conclusion in half the time.

4. It took forever to get it out of Science too.
I alerted three times and demanded an answer on the last one before it got moved. Maybe one of the mods who frequents this group could explain why it took so long to reach consensus over whether post hawking alt-med garbage belonged in the Science forum.

7. I have no curiosity either. "I am a man of only one book."
Attributed to Aquinas.

8. Aw, shit, I miss all the good stuff.
I'll bet I know who the poster was, though. I have two candidates, but one of them would have been deleted on sight.
