  1. Re:Looking for a copy on Amazon.Heartbreak · · Score: 1

    Of course it's available at Amazon--if Amazon banned the book, it would make for a media bonanza. The resulting publicity would mostly likely increase sales dramatically, so they're actually hurting the author more by agreeing to sell it.

  2. why the debate? the nerve damage is quantifiable on Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome A Hoax? · · Score: 2

    I find this question a little silly since the effects of RSIs can be measured quantifiably. I actually don't have carpal tunnel (gasp), but I do have ulnar entrapment, which is the same thing on a different nerve. I was tested for it, and the medical test involves measuring a certain length on your arm and sending currents through the nerve to see how well it works. The output is a numerical measurement of how well/poorly your nerve is working. Am I missing something here? Sure, there are fakers who haven't been tested, but faking the RSI nerve tests seems almost as difficult/absurd as faking an MRI or EEG. Or am I missing something here?
