<< Don't fall in love with a stock Howie.>>
Good advice to anyone, as is do not fall in love with yourself or any guru who demonstrates that he/she cannot or will not admit fallibility.

<<You're trying to make the Zicam promotion sound like the launch of a real, clinically tested and effective drug.>>>
It is clear that I do not believe this is a fraud and I resent that you are directly accusing two respected Ph.D. researchers and their colleagues of illegal activity without any evidence and without respect to very good explanations that have been presented to you. You call us shills and say that we are hyping, but we are here presenting logically what we believe to be the truth and we back up what we say with the data we can. Frontrunning for shorters is just as bad as longs hyping a stock and I believe that we have presented reasonable arguments with reasonable support.

<<Zicam = homeopathy = quackery.>>
The posts have clearly explained the difference between espousing homeopathy as a medical practice and the use of the term for labelling purposes. It has been clearly stated that Zicam is a 2% solution. Next time you are in Albertson's, Kmart, WalMart, RiteAid or one of the many stores listed in the press releases or on the zicam.com website, pick up a container of Zicam and yell "quackery!".

You will only have to do it more than forty thousand times to do that once in each store stocking the product. By the time you are finished, we will all know whether or not a respected medical journal has published the study...
