... for the combatants to return to their corners, lick their wounds, and maybe actually crack a book or visit the library -- or make proper use of Google.
I don't own a copy of Walker's book, though I think it was one of the ones I read a year or two back (from the library) when I was getting familiar with DMSO. So, does the book give actual journal references to back up the claims? Anybody actually *looked* to see? Called them up on Medline or ordered the journals up via inter-library loan? It might require some work, since most of the "good stuff" is likely to date from before the FDA got stupid about it. Apart from that, I expect that most of us have outgrown our insistence on double-blind controlled studies on statistically significant populations. If that were the only trustworthy standard we might as well close down this list right now and give up on colloidal silver... 'Cause there just aren't many people in the world willing to shell out many millions of dollars to "prove" that CS does what we all know that it does. Given the way DMSO has been treated by our government, it would hardly surprise me that few large scale studies have been done in this country over the last 40 years since the FDA squashed it. I do wonder about activity in other countries, however... Lastly, I'd appreciate it if you folks would keep your attitudes and keyboards in check. The resentments you're expressing seems to have too much to do with personal dislike and too little with our mission of seeing people get help for what ails them. You don't have to like each other. You do have to treat each other with respect on this list. That goes of *all* of you, Nina, "Stuff", Garnet, and whomever else I've forgotten to mention.
