 Is it true that much of traditional medicine is derived from folk medi-

Well Don, it's true that some drugs are derived from primative
nostrums...however, you'd have to eat a crapload of Willow Tree bark to
attain the analgesic effect of one aspirin, and you'd have to eat a lethal
amount of potatoes to amount to one of the wussy white Valiums (2mg)...so
what's your point? Yeah, there are many meds that are either reproductions or
concentrations of herbs and such...would you suggest that raw opium is
preferrable to morphine?

frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL

be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
