Possibly. I haven't visited there in a while but decided to check in to
see the skeptics take on the "JUPITER" study. There are some
interesting things to be found in the actual study data if you can get

draw royalties therefrom. :-)
These links are referenced there directly or indirectly and are worth a
read. I also love the cartoon on the first link.

heard me right. See, for example;
