Frank:

Your pessimism is very appropriate.  What I didn't say is that my friend is 
psychic.  He says he gets his information, in addition to experimentation on 
himself, working with patients, and reading widely, from a doctor who has 
"passed to the other side".  I call him with a health issue, and he dictates an 
herbal formula sometimes a page long with the number of parts per ingredient.  
He 
has treated a friend of mine with lung cancer in this way, and a friend with 
lupus.  In both cases medical tests revealed both conditions cleared within 
three months after treatment, and have not returned after ten years.
