Guest guest Posted May 25, 2002 Report Share Posted May 25, 2002 - When those who > post new material or info regarding potential new treatments are so > vilified as was Dr. Pilcher, people will be discouraged from posting > new ideas, period. I think " vilified " is a bit strong. Dr. Pilcher made some statements and was asked to justify them. He did not. I suspect vilification will come, though, if this investigation is reviewed by a board of his peers. > The whole point of this forum is to discuss ideas; both medical and > non-medical.

I agree wholeheartedly.....it should be open for discussion of ideas both medical and non-medical. The point is, this discussion WAS medical from the outset. Dr. Pilcher is a scientist and he presented his claims with a research investigation as evidence of authenticity. If that investigation is fundamentally flawed, I believe it is of everyone's benefit that it be exposed. You apparently disagree, though for the life of me I don't understand why. > > > > I really don't understand the problem here. > > > > The moderators of this group censor what they consider to be abusive > > or insulting posts (sometimes over-zealously I think, but that's > their > > privelege). > > > > ALL posts have the posters name to the side of it.
