  1. Re:Acupuncture cult pseudo-science on Acupuncture May Trigger a Natural Painkiller · · Score: 1

    BTW, I had been to many, many traditional doctors who couldn't even diagnose the cause much less provide any relief. None of the drugs they gave me helped at all.

  2. Re:Acupuncture cult pseudo-science on Acupuncture May Trigger a Natural Painkiller · · Score: 1

    I don't especially care to be called a fool. I was dragged to an acupuncturist by my wife. I had no doubts that it was a waste of time and money. However, I walked out of there pain free for the first time in 10 years. I don't care what skeptics think. I don't care what the mechanism is. I just know in my case it worked and am thankful for it.

  3. Re:Not impressed on Amazon Launches Full Text Book Search · · Score: 1

    I agree with this. I have been looking for a book that I read back in 76 of which I have long since forgotten the title. I did a search on "how many eggs does a pancake make" (with the quotes) and it didn't find anything. Without the quotes, the search resulted in 8522 hits; most of which were cook books. BTW, the book, as I recall, was about a bunch of teenagers bumming around Europe and the above quote was from one of many weird blurbs the author dropped in.
