I was so taken with your site and the attached spreadsheet that I think I forgot to thank you for the refund on the scope arm. I apologize. I'm sorry about this. I am very grateful. I've made this arm something of a crusade now. I tell all my potential suppliers to provide the necessary gear for its repair. One day it will be restored. I won't stop until it is. Once installed on the telescope, it will carry with it the story of my chance meeting with Paul Golding and how he came to "gift" me this arm. Everyone who listens to you will know about you and your generosity. Your private pages have filled much of my free time over the past few days. After examining your data and reading the correspondence between you, your doctors, the testing laboratories and the so-called certifiers, I can summarize my thoughts in one word: Exasperating! It is for cases like this that I wish I had unlimited funds to prosecute these charlatans and put them out of business... if not in prison... for their reckless and irresponsible actions. I'm sure you feel the same way too. What always happens in an accreditation-based system is that accreditors stop answering to everyone except those they accredit… who essentially answer to no one.

And when I say "labs" I mean all over the world, not just in Australia. The problem is that labs, while dismissive of patient challenges, are never challenged by doctors, who are too often clueless and uninterested in bringing labs to bear on their inconsistent and unreliable results. As my father always reminded me, “Why should I…middle of paper…gh to see how the medical profession uses the placebo effect as a benchmark against which to measure pharmaceutical effectiveness…ignoring effectiveness of the placebo itself! Why not work instead to improve the effectiveness of the placebo alone? body will be routinely incorporated into regenerative healing as physical therapy is today. The facts and data surrounding your case will not change with time, Paul. You have already done a great job documenting your case. There is plenty of time for publish your article once you have recovered. It would be best to concentrate on recovering your health, knowing that you will then have the energy to carry out the article to maximum effect.?
