The only likely effect of inserting an ad for a specific research project is that it will make the objection to Crawley's talk look like it has no real basis. If anything, that sort of "campaign" will support Crawley's claims about irrational extremists attacking her because they hate her...

They also tried to use Wessely's harassment article as evidence, from what I recall, but the court was not impressed. Wessely wasn't a PACE researcher (though involved at a clinic).

Possible, but extraordinarily unlikely, given the attention she is seeking based on her claims. Why use a fake letter if she has a real one that has the same effect?

Publishing patients are having an impact :cool::

If that's Facebook, why doesn't it know that I'm already logged into Facebook? :cautious:

I'd be curious to see the comments from the reviewers. I doubt he was happy with the statements indicating all of his Oxford research is useless crap :cool:

Wow, they both nailed it. Considering they only had 5 minutes, they were extremely on-point in going after the major issues. Though I think the program editors could have skipped on the "Hysteria" text screen shot, or the other psych one :-P

Enough of the weather already. It's the UK, it's gonna suck. :neutral:

I think it is. After mentioning Unrest, they were only talking about a cooking show that starts after this show.

I thought they said 9:50 for Jen & Charles when showing the preview, but I wasn't paying close attention.

We get BBC One in the Netherlands too :-)

I'm still half expecting him to cure himself, write a book about it, and go on tour to inspire the masses :-P No doubt his intentions are good, but if you've only been sick for a year, you're still at the stage where you need to be learning about the existing ME/CFS community, not trying to...

Well, the EU says it's illegal. The Netherlands smiles politely, ignores the EU, and continues to charge the tax while completely failing to enforce the EU's laws in regards to downloading :cool: From a legal standpoint, I think they'd have a lot of trouble enforcing it. Anyone can pull out...

They probably aren't that scientific. Based on the tweets, it's a lot of enthusiastic liberal arts students who still believe everything they're told. Connections, and I wouldn't be surprised if she's doing it for free. Some speakers might expect to have expenses paid, but she's on a campaign...

Ours were about 6cm, and we had to raise them to 10cm to accommodate the robo-vac (we call it Dalek, because of the noises it makes). Luckily our other furniture already had a nice gap. I got one a couple months ago, and love it. We got a wireless keyboard to go with it, so I can use it on...

Maybe the Sunday Times could be informed of what she's been doing with the image, and rescind their permission to use it.

It clearly wasn't sent to her, since a newspaper created it :-P It's not clear if it's a reproduction of an actual letter or phone call. But it does sound like it wasn't sent in that form, eg with the text formed from magazine cut-outs, since the newspaper wouldn't own the image if that were...

That's why she isn't displaying an actual note she received. They simply aren't that bad (as the FOI tribunal found), and she also doesn't want to repeat someone's accusation that she's sadistic and delusional, or the implication that she thinks a disease can be cured with exercise. So it's...

Wheelchair - no more death marches or making myself sick standing around too long. Mobility scooter - I can go do fun stuff when I'm feeling well enough :D Shower chair - helps keep my heart rate down, especially if I have one leg propped up Heart rate monitor - water resistant, so very...

Insincere is the key word. She knows she's lying. She knows what reality is, and it isn't what she's saying. She's not deluded in her accusations against patients - she's a liar.
