I'd like to know, actually, WHY you depend on Quackwatch for ANY 
arguments. Barrett, the head of quackwatch, has lost repeatedly in 
court in recent years, and his claims are specious up and down the 
line -- not only about Null, but about others as well.

If you're going to argue against something Null says, at least get it 
right and do your own homework. Warning: Don't rely on Quackwatch, 
'cause Barrett is shown to be the biggest quack in the pond.
