Re: I\'d like to share an interesting quote from an interesting book.
[ QUOTE ]
The placebo effect is when a person is given a "placebo," which is in effect nothing, yet their disease is cured.
[/ QUOTE ]
This doesn't prove squat. Of course the placebo effect exists, but it by no means proves that the patients' thoughts alone cured the disease. It could be that the person's body cured itself, the person was not really sick, or the person had some sort of psychological disorder that made them think they were ill. And I know because I have an undergraduate degree in finance. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
