Respectful Insolence

The miscellaneous ramblings of a surgeon/scientist on medicine, quackery, science, pseudsocience, history, and pseudohistory (and anything else that interests him) by Orac. Orac is the nom de blog of a humble pseudonymous surgeon/scientist with an ego just big enough to delude himself that someone, somewhere might actually give a rodent's posterior about his miscellaneous verbal meanderings, but just barely small enough to admit to himself that few will.
