Re: Old wives' tale

I was not attacking the messenger, but rather pointing out that the truly vile Stephen Barrett has zero credibility here.  Here are just a couple of links that tell you all you need to know about Barrett:

If that isn't enough, do a Google search for "Stephen Barrett quackpot" and see the returns you get.

I will remind you once again that this is the Cancer Alternative SUPPORT forum.  As is instructed at the top of the forum page, if you are skeptical about alternative treatments, take it to the Cancer Debate forum.  It is OK to disagree, but you aren't likely to get much creedence when you quote sources such as the mainstream cancer organizations and especially sources like Stephen Barrett.
