From the incomparable Ben Goldacre:

Homeopathy works no better than placebo. Which means it has an effect. But an effect that can be delivered without costing a small fortune. Homeopathic remedies contain no active ingredient. Homeopathic remedies contain nothing of any medical benefit. Homeopathic remedies are a very, very expensive way of buying water or sugar. That’s it.
All parents should read this, especially the ones who are being hounded by the likes of the AVN and hectored into putting their (and others’) children at risk. This debate shouldn’t even need to be happening now.
Just awesome.

Glorious. Simply glorious. Weird creatures that evolution has given the world. In colour.
Stuff. Important stuff. Interesting stuff. Funny stuff. Maybe.
