"They" told me things like "don't believe big pharma funded studies" and I believed them. It seemed to make sense. They showed me charts and they were pretty. I'm not a scientist, it was hard to tell truth from tale.<br /> I'm glad I eventually found a forum where ScienceMom usually posts, and started to think again. This post is also an eye-opener!

Because not only the Industry is not playing by the rules, it's also not getting called out on it and it's even being protected by the authorities. Shouldn't you be angry about that instead? Because Dr. Bob is really tiny compared to the size of the Industry and its influences over those sacred Institutions you call out.
