    My letter to the CDC concerning Kaiser Permanente still recommending GET

    Fair enough Indeed, though your goal seems to be to convince them to do better. Its not quite this simple, a provider is in the business of providing care, if they provide bad care they are of course not helping patients. The reason for providing sub optimal care varies in disease to disease...

    David Tuller - Trial By Error: A Post About Andrew Lloyd

    Yeah probably, however given the choice of disseminating lies without consequence or calling out lies i choose calling them out.

    David Tuller - Trial By Error: A Post About Andrew Lloyd

    All thats needed is to not make threats, even obviously bogus ones. It does mean not saying everything thats on our minds in the ways we may want to but the alternative is worse. While most of us live in countries that make it legal to use common expressions we are a population living under...

    Michael Sharpe skewered by @JohntheJack on Twitter

    Fair enough, sounds very familiar in politics In answer to your original query i suspect the expression power corrupts would apply. This may be relevant/interesting https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2016/10/18/13285196/2016-trump-clinton-psychology-power

    I am unfamiliar with this term, can you explain it further?

    My letter to the CDC concerning Kaiser Permanente still recommending GET

    But a specialist can do further testing to rule out other rare diseases (including genetic testing) and would be able to trial off label treatments that some patients have found helpful that your PCP knows nothing about (points you can appeal with). Also a specialist would know about the current...

    Turning badmouthing of ME/CFS on social media into something positive - a fundraising possibility

    That is a good one, though i prefer real science because it adds oomph to the PACE pusher its being deployed against. i kinda like #Justice4pwME Though we can have more then one in the end, many people seem to use several hashtags

    Turning badmouthing of ME/CFS on social media into something positive - a fundraising possibility

    But if you google PWME you get the answer very quickly I would, i think my favourite is #RealScience4pwME (not on your list) It would work great when dealing with PACE pushers Perhaps you should run a poll with all then a second poll with the top 5?

    NPR: 2018 April 5. Ineffective treatment often prescribed for low back pain.

    A well trained non shyster chiropractor. If they lived in my city i would recommend my person, she is amazing and needs cloning.

    NPR: 2018 April 5. Ineffective treatment often prescribed for low back pain.

    A good chiropractor can handle many back pain issues (not all, once too much damage is done its permanent), but the profession has shot itself in the foot by clinging to debunked 18th century stupidity. Then you get chiros who keep you coming back forever further staining the profession's...

    This is epic, well done! An empty threat designed to make us go away (but failing)?

    David Tuller - Trial By Error: A Post About Andrew Lloyd

    Is this a joke, your saying that being smart about how you do things is a bad idea because throwing everything at a problem without thinking it through is the best strategy. And just so we are clear choosing to use no strategy is a strategy, just not a good one. If we placed a text message at...

    David Tuller: Trial By Error: My Berkeley-Backed Crowdfunding Campaign

    Double standards are a common device for reality deniers. They also will use abstract or ridiculous arguments, so if you asked him i expect he would say something to the effect of he earned his position and his funding comes from a 'reputable' source.
