Welcome to Confessions of a Quackbuster.
I confess to being a skeptic who is concerned about healthcare, consumer protection, quackery, healthfraud, chiropractic quackery, and other forms of so-called "Alternative" Medicine.
The Other Side of the Coin
"Skepticism is the first step toward truth."
- Denis Diderot
This Table of Contents is in chronological order, from bottom to top, just like this blog. To get the most benefit, just start at the bottom.
Since "out of sight" usually means "out of mind", I consider archived blog entries to be pretty much useless to people who browse blogs. That's why I have chosen to place a complete Table of Contents right up front.
You can use Google's Toolbar to search this page. To see the newest entries in the sidebar to the right, you should refresh the site first.
Blog status
This blog is rather neglected and in some cases may not be up to date. Consider it an information archive and use accordingly. I have not been actively dealing with these matters for several years. My choice of blog title isn't because I have ever been a real "quackbuster", but because I was accused of being such, and I took that as a compliment, especially considering the source of the criticism. The critic is a promoter of quackery, and is thus against quackbusters whose anti-quackery efforts expose him and his clients, many of whom have been convicted in courts of law for fraud, malpractice, and/or unscientific practices. Obviously the double negative "anti anti-quackery" implies that my critic is for quackery. I'd much rather be considered as being against quackery than for it.
There are nearly a thousand entries here, with very little of it written by myself. If you have an issue with something, take it up with the author or quoted sources, not me. If you find something you consider to be libelous or otherwise illegal, by all means contact me. Be very specific about which words you find objectionable. Maybe I can somehow contact the author and warn them, and maybe even be lucky enough to get it changed!
If I have not been contacted and given fair warning, I cannot be held liable.
