Mark,
I often heard this saying used in medicine "if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck.. it's a quack" I believe that's how it goes tho you may remember the saying better than I ~ anyway Dr.T sure sounds like a quack w/his quotes even if there may be some actual relief in his unorthodox and off label use of drug/treatments. His idea of running trials certainly seems to be pretty a bit turned around.
