    Nonsense. The (outer) core and molten because of the heat generated as the earth formed from gravitational acretion. One day it'll cool, solidify, the plates will stop moving and the magnetic field will disappear - man, you're going to need some high factor sunblock.

    Most scientists in the field would accept that the tidal effect of the moon could have a triggering effect on earthquakes, if conditions on a given fault were susceptible. It's just that all the factors that go into making those conditions right completely outweigh the moon's influence.

    I should have read the news before posting my last post.

    Not poo-pooed, more like not approved. There is little in the way of FDA (US) approval for herbs because it is so costly and there is nothing in it for the drug companies who spend billions on synthesised and copyrighted derivatives of these plants.

Unlike Ken Rings science, theres has genuine results.


    I'm giving away one of my motorcycles. Free to the first person that brings me one of Ken Rings ears. And yes, I have a couple of bikes, so just because someone beats you to him, don't let that stop you from bringing me the other one.

    Too lazy to read all/any of that. What do medical errors have to do with the 'herbal remedies vs researched drugs' discussion?

    Someone reckoned herbal medicine is no safer than allopathic, I used those misadventure stats to highlight the opposite.

    Oh yup. But how does someone getting the wrong body part operated on, or being given the wrong dose or type of medicine, or having instruments left in them during surgery suggest that herbal medicine is safer?

    The 20th is a Sunday so I'll make sure I'm safely at my home in the 'burbs and not in the "Big Smoke". We don't know that Ken isn't right yet!

    You'll be fine, just carry a clove of garlic and don't step on cracks in the footpath. Oh, and walk clockwise three times around your house chanting "buggermewithazucchiniifkenisright".

    Just because we don't understand Chinese, it doesn't mean that 1.3 billion Chinese who do are wrong!

    Ken might just be right, personally I hope and believe that he is not! Time at least will tell.
